According to the last official score kept by the editors of "Forbes" magazine, in charge of the list of billionaires, the estate of Eike Batista would have dropped to around US$ 19 billion. No doubt a lot of money, but less than US$ 30 billion attributed to him in March 2011.
* Also, Batista is virtually tied with Jorge Paulo Lemann, one of the main shareholders of AB-InBev, the second richest Brazilian and one of the few billionaires whose wealth has increased regardless of the last stock market crisis.
* In time, if it’s any consolation for Eike, Mexico’s Carlos Slim Helu, the richest man in the world, also lost money – he went from having US$ 74 billion in March 2011 to "only" US$ 62 billion now, still according to the magazine.
