About Quotes Trivia


Born on: 20th Jan 40 Born in: Mexico Marital status: Married Occupation:
Chairman & CEO of Telmex
Carlos Slim Helu net worth is estimated around $76.4 billion as of July 2015 .
Helu is a early 20th century style American capitalist who believes in monopoly,
old factory system and economies of scale more than innovation and technology.
This telecom tycoon is compared to the likes of Rockefeller, Carnegie, Stanford
and J P Morgan etc and is often called Robber Baron of 21st century. Carlos Slim
Helu net worth made him the first person from a developing country to have
topped the "Forbes" list. He is a multi billionaire with a difference; his old
world style appears not only in his business style, but also in his life style.
Carlos Slim Helu net worth estimated at $74 billion made him the wealthiest
person in the world along with Bill Gates. He has carving for classical painting
and sculpture by great artists likes Rodin, Renoir, Da Vinci and Micheal Angelo.
Despite the huge Carlos Slim Helu net worth, this 71 years old man lives in a
modest six-bedroom house, a mile away from his office. He doesn't believe in
conspicuous consumption and has no interest in flashy super yachts or palatial
houses around the world. Carlos doesn't even own a fleet of cars and still loves
to drive by himself. He is fan of Baseball club "New York Yankees", but unlike
Russian Oligarchs he is happy being a fan only and doesn't want to buy it.
Carlos Slim Helu net worth did not change his belief of living a simple family
life just like his fellow Lebanese people contrary to that of  much publicized
life of American Business Tycoons. He is a family man and had a successful
married life with Soumaya Domit, in whose name he also founded an Art museum
called "Museu Soumaya". With increasing age he has given more and more business
responsibilities to his 3 sons and 3 sons in laws in preparation to managing
the Carlos Slim Helu net worth after his retirement.
"When you live for others' opinions, you are dead. I don't want to live thinking
about how I'll be remembered."
"In this new wave of technology, you can't do it all yourself, you have to form
alliances."
"What's happening now is that the market remains trading at very thin volumes
and that can affect prices, even when just a handful of shares are traded, ...
The decision of any fund to pull out from certain stock hits the price."
"I still have my laptop but I haven't used it. I'm a paper man, not electronic."
"I've always said that the better off you are, the more responsibility you have
for helping others. Just as I think it's important to run companies well, with a
close eye to the bottom line, I think you have to use your entrepreneurial
experience to make corporate philanthropy effective."
"We want as few management layers as possible, so that executives are very close
to the operations. We also don’t believe in having big corporate
infrastructures."
"Technology is going to transform people’s lives and society everywhere in the
world. I spend most of my time studying new technologies. My main task is to
understand what’s going on and try to see where we can fit in."
"I think one of the big errors people are making right now is thinking that
old-style businesses will be obsolete, when actually they will be an important
part of this new civilization."
"Our concept is more to accomplish and solve things, rather than giving, that
is, not going around like Santa Claus. Poverty isn't solved with donations."
"When we decide to do something, we do it quickly."
"Work well done is not only a responsibility to yourselves and society; it is
also an emotional need."
"Staying occupied displaces preoccupation and problems, and when we face our
problems, they disappear."
""When you give, do not expect to receive, Fragrance clings to the hand that
gives the rose"."
Carlos is of Lebanese Origin. His father, born Khalil Slim Haddad, immigrated to
Mexico at the age of 14 in 1902, and changed his first name to Julian.
