Billionaire Profiles: Brazil’s Eike Batista

By

Tycoon: Eike Batista, Chairman and CEO, EBX

Brazil’s wealthiest tycoon and the world’s 8th richest man shares his insights and philosophy on creating wealth and helping mankind. All too often billionaires are associated with Donald Trump types who appear only interested in personal aggrandizement through the sale of gaudy condos. Fortunately, they are not all like that. Mining magnate Batista is motivated by the goal of helping his country improve economically and socially.

Pay careful attention to how he jumps on mega-trends and pursues long range goals instead of being obsessed with quarterly goals.
