So, I was doing a bit of reading about Carlos Slim and came across this article: http://theweek.com/article/index/200797/7-things-to-know-about-carlos-slim-helu

The article is fine but what blew me away are the comments. Most of those comments are people asking carlos slim for money, offering him to come invest in their country, i.e. Kenia, and so on and so forth.

Are people (or scammers) that naive or delusional that they believe that Carlos Slim will read their comments and maybe even answer them?

What the heck! I've never ever seen this before about any other billionaire.

Any ideas?

Here are some hilarious comments:
