67 Mexican Telecom mogul Carlos Slim Helu, the world's third richest man, increased his fortune during 2006 at the rate of $2.2 million an hour. His corporate empire is so vast that it's nearly impossible for most Mexicans to go a day without slipping a few pesos into his pocket. Forbes magazine estimated his net worth at $49 billion.
