So according to Forbes Bill Gates is once again the richest man in America. Not far behind is Warren Buffet, the 2007 richest man in America who is pictured on the left. Unfortunately Ludacris is nowhere on the list. I just thought this picture was funny because Luda’s net worth is pocket change compared to them. People pay thousands just to sit down and have lunch with them or attend workshops by them. Even though he is the richest man in America he is not the most admired nowadays. Microsoft has garnered a reputation of being a big bully in the tech world that can buy their way into anything. I liken Microsoft alot to Wal Mart who is also considered a bully in the retail world. Each companies products aren’t the hippest to coolest but EVERYBODY goes to Wal Mart and EVERYBODY uses Windows. It shows how dominant Wal Mart is because 4-7 on the richest list are Sam Waltons kids. If Sam Walton was still alive he’d by far be the richest man in the world.
