According to the daily Bloomberg, billionaire Bill Gates once again leads the list of the richest people in the world, after being overtaken by Mexican Carlos Slim in 2007.

The fortune of Gates, founder of Microsoft, is estimated at $ 72,700 million and increased 16% in the last year due to the pick ups on the financial market  in recent months.

Slim, who ranks second, is left with 72,100 million due to the decline in the market price of his company America Movil.
