OXFORD and Cambridge are among the world's top ten universities, according to a new global ranking published today. \n\n \n \nThey were fifth and sixth respectively in the league table of the world's 200 best universities. Harvard, which boasts an endowment of nearly $23billion (£12.7billion), was first in the list produced by The Times Higher Education Supplement (THES).\n\nAmerican institutions occupied seven of the top ten places, with Oxbridge the highest-ranked outside the United States. \n\nLondon's position as a centre of global educational significance was confirmed with four institutions in the top 50. The London School of Economics was 11th, Imperial College 14th, University College London 34th, and the School of Oriental and African Studies 44th.

The list would still start out with Bill Gates either way. He made a donation to some charity this year that made him the world's, not the U.S.'s, biggest philanthropist. He's donated more money in a year than any person every. Of course, since he has the most money of any person ever, it only makes sense.\n\nBrandon O'Dell\nO'Dell Consulting\nRestaurants/Retail/Bars\n(316) 361-0675\nbodell1@cox.net\nhttp://www.bodellconsulting.com\n\nFree initial consultations

In my opinion (which is based on the facts,) Bill Gates is THE best entrepreneur in the world. He started his own company, Microsoft, and has since then become the richest man in the WORLD! His net worth is $40.7 BILLION!\n\nThis site has some more info on Bill and his accomplishments: http://www.forbes.com/finance/lists/10/2003/LIR.jhtml?passListId=10&passYear=2003&passListType=Person&datatype=Person&uniqueId=BH69

The richest man in the world is Bill Gates and he is only a billionaire. There are only millionaires and billionairs, no such thing as a trillionaire yet.

All the indications are that MR BILL GATES is the richest man on the planet.\n\nhowever:- \n\nThe Register (reports the following) » Bootnotes »\n\n\nMicrosoft's BILL GATES  dethroned as world's richest person by cheap furniture magnate\n\nIKEA bests the Beast\nBy Ashlee Vance in ChicagoPublished Monday 5th April 2004 \n\nAll hail Ingvar Kamprad!\n\n\nThe Swedish founder of the IKEA furniture chain has passed Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates as the world's richest person, according to reports out of Sweden. Business weekly Veckans Affarer is set to report that Kamprad holds a fortune of 400 billion crowns or $53 billion. This would put him $6 billion ahead of Gates\n\n\nBut that was in 2004 and now Mr Gates is well in the lead again.

Bill Gates has been the richest man in the world for the past 8 years.  I think he doesn't become a political leader because he is too busy with his co. Also, I think it is easier to be the man behind the scenes.  So, someone else may take the fall.  The richest people in the world are NOT political leaders as was stated earlier.  Bill Gates holds no political position, nor do many on the list of the world's richest.
