À propos de cet épisode

<p>Carlos Slim Helú's financial might has led some people to nickname his native Mexico ‘Slimlandia’. He dominates the country’s businesses, from telecoms to construction.

Then they decide if they think he’s good, bad, or just another billionaire.</p><p>We’d love to hear your feedback.
