N1. “El Chapo” was listed on Forbes’ Lust of the Top Billionaires
As you may know by now, every year Forbes magazine publishes a list of the world’s top billionaires.
The list is almost the same every year, but also includes some newcomers.
In 2009, the list had also featured the Mexican drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman to the list.
He is believed to control 25% of drug trafficking into the U.S., making it the most powerful international drug cartel in the world.
“El Chapo” was featured in that list until 2012.
According to senior wealth editor Luisa Kroll, “El Chapo” was dropped from the list because “Guzman’s family had grown, and an increasing chunk of money was going to protect them.” Forbes could no longer determine whether or not the drug kingpin was actually a billionaire.
