Billionaire Carlos Slim suggests three-day work week

If you like those 4 day weekends that happen only a couple times a year, then you'll definitely like this guy: Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim thinks the work week should only be THREE days long. He's the second richest man in the world thanks to Telemex, his telecom company ... and some of his employees are able to retire before they even hit 50.
They have the option of a four day work week, and Slim wants to slim that down even more. The billionaire believes this could help people balance their home and work lives better.
But there's a catch. Those three days would consist of 11-hours at the office and you'd likely be working into your 70s -- that's roughly 9 years longer than the average retirement age of workers in the U.S. So there's a few things to consider.
And a policy director told CBS Moneywatch says the idea might seem great to Slim ... the average person doesn't want to work that long -- billionaires, on the other hand, have a lot more fun at theirs jobs.
Some companies, like Google, already offer a compressed work week -- and CNN sites a survey conducted in 2008 that revealed 59% of participants wanted the option.

Cameron Diaz ends interview following insult -- and proves she's a great friend

 
When interviewing celebrities it's best not to offend them -- particularly when you're speaking with them over the phone and they can just hang up.
Cameron Diaz and her 'Sex Tape' co-star Jason Segel joined KIIS 106.5's 'Kyle and Jackie O's Radio Show' and, while the interview started pleasantly enough, it took a turn when host Kyle Sandilands made a comparison between young co-star Giselle Eisenberg and Diaz's best friend Drew Barrymore.
Then, to make things worse, Sandilands tries to pivot the conversation to her rumored new boyfriend, Benji madden of 'Good Charlotte,' which Diaz refused to even respond to.
Ultimately the 41-year-old star gets back on the line and says that they have to go, politely thanks them for their time ... and hangs up.
As clueless as Sandilands was throughout the interview, at least he wasn't as bad as Charlie Stayt during his interview with Jennifer Aniston back in 2011. Instead of offending an actress's friends -- he went straight for the actress.
Listen for yourself in the clip above.


If Diaz's killer retort doesn't make you want to be her friend, these photos from her 'Tonight Show' interview might -- the woman knows how to have fun:
