Slim’s Pickings: The Start of the Billion Dollar Business
Helu’s big break came in the 1990s, when the Mexican government succumbed to pressure from the World Bank and International Monetary Fund to liberalize its country’s economy. A massive campaign of privatization began, with the government selling off the hundreds of companies that were state-owned. Among those companies was Telefonos de Mexico (Telmex), the Mexican national telephone company.

The Mobile Mexican Magnate: How Carlos Slim Helu Got His Start
He has been called the Warren Buffett of Latin America, but on the most recent Forbes list of the world’s richest people, the Mexican born Carlos Slim Helu bumped the great American investor down to third spot. With an estimated net worth of $53 billion, Helu is now the second richest person in the world, and just $3 billion behind Bill Gates.

7 Quick n Easy Steps to Create Videos That Impress
We’re adding a lot of video to our websites now. We all know (based on what every guru I’ve studied says), that videos can sometimes dramatically boost conversion rates on sales copy, websites and/or landing pages. Carlos Garcia, for example, created a report that showed how adding a video to one of his websites and changing a couple of things boosted sales rates from 1.6 to 3.3 –that’s almost doubling the initial sales rates. I’ve had to write numerous video scripts lately for different websites, and because at MindValley we like processes and automation, I came up with a process for writing these scripts. It integrates a lot of ideas from Robert Cialdini, from Frank Kern, from Kenneth Yu, and from Jeff Walker.
The Opportunity of the Information Age
In the book Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell explains that success by no means is just sheer hard work and high IQ. It also involves your upbringing, being presented with the right opportunity at the right time and your thought process. There is one section that I found quite interesting. He lists down the 75 richest humans ever to set foot on planet Earth, from Pharaohs to the current day Carlos Slims. The #1 was...
