The artwork and artifacts inside are worth almost a billion dollars. Distributed between six main exhibition rooms, it is one of the largest museums of its kind in Latin America.
The Soumaya Museum individual pieces and collections. Much of the museum's holdings are from Slim's own collection. Recently, Carlos Slim has been allocating chunks of his business empire to his three sons and three daughters. Rather than simply handing his children cash, he is carving up and giving control of his businesses to them to run. Because Slim is in his 80s, this sort of estate planning ensures that his companies and wealth will continue to grow even after his death. Although Carlos Slim has more money than nearly everyone else on earth, he also gives away more money than nearly an individual on earth.
Slim also donated a similar amount to The Latin America in Solidarity Action Foundation ALAS , a non-profit formed by businessmen, artists, and prominent citizens to improve the health and education of Latin American children. Mexico City Historic Downtown Foundation.
According to his personal website , the goal of this foundation is to revitalize and rescue Mexico City's historic downtown area to enable more people to live, work, and find entertainment there.
But beyond that, his philanthropic mission to donate much of his wealth to that help better his home country of Mexico and Latin America may be his biggest investment and certainly a lasting legacy.
