8 out of 40

[waynakyo]

of the most influential people in the world (a half B.S. list by yahoo) are bald, only ! http://www.forbes.com/2009/11/11/worlds-most-powerful-leadership-power-09-people_slide_11.html


i think, when you not going bald in your 30's, on average, you manage to focus more on everything else, feel young inside, and possibly take more risks.

here's the people with visible hairloss in that list..

Putin
Bernanke
Helu
Murdoch
Duke
Silvio (he has had a hair transplant so I am counting him here)
Buffett
Fink
Blankfein
Changchun
Bloomberg
Ka-shing
Gyatso

that's 13 out of 38. you can't count the two women.

this also isn't counting the ones whose hair isn't in the frame, those are wearing turbans, kaffiyeh, and so on, those who might have had a hair transplant that I'm not aware of..

and on top of that, a LOT of the non balding people are from races that are just not genetically predisposed to balding as much - blacks, asians.

i think balding people are pretty well represented on the list. they can't ALL be NW6/7s, just because NW6/7s are like 5-10% of the population.

[s.a.f]

Surely this thread is pointless since the average age of the people on that list is about 65? And even if you could see how their hair looked in their 20's and 30's it would'nt tell you much.
I think a far more relavant question would be how many of them did'nt come from highly privilaged backgrounds. Not many from what I can see.
