Slim Elu always spends money carefully. He told the media that he had been keeping accounts since 12 years old. Recently, however, Slim Elu said that in order to improve medical care and education in Mexico, he will set up a charity fund and plan to invest 654.38+0 billion US dollars in four years. However, he made it clear that he would not give up the management of the company. He said wealth is like an orchard. You can share the fruit with others, but you can't give away the orchard.
