1. Bill Gates earns US$250 every SECOND, that's about US$20
Million a DAY and US$7.8 Billion a YEAR! .
________________________________________________________
2. If he drops a thousand dollar, he won't even bother to pick
it up bcoz the 4 seconds he picks it, he would've already earned
it back.
_______________________________________________________
3. The US national debt is about 5.62 trillion, if
Bill Gates were to pay the debt by himself; he will finish it in
less then 10 years.
_________________________________________________
4. He can donate US$15 to everyone on earth but still be left
with US$5 Million for his pocket money.
___________________________________________________
5. Michael Jordan is the highest paid athlete in US.
If he doesn't drink and eat, and keeps up his annual income i.e.
US$30 Million, he'll have to wait for 277 years to become as
rich as Bill Gates is now.
_______________________________________________
6. If Bill Gates was a country, he would be the 37th richest
country on earth.
______________________________________________
7. If you change all of Bill Gate's money to US$1 notes, you can
make a road from earth to moon, 14 times back and forth. But you
have to make that road non-stop for 1,400 years, and use a total
of 713 BOEING 747 planes to transport all the money.
______________________________________________________
8. Bill Gates is 40 this year. If we assume that he will live
for another 35 years, he has to spend US$6.78 Million per day to
finish all his money before he can go to heaven.
_____________________________________________________
Last but not the least:
If Microsoft Windows' users can claim US$1 for every time their
computers hang because of Microsoft Windows, Bill Gates will be
bankrupt in 3 years!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bill and Melinda Gates, I heard, are very generous people. They have a foundation that really helps the community and even globally. Even the other rich guy, Warren Buffet, entrusted his millions of donations for the Gates Foundation's disposal. They are low-key pa jud unlike other rich people i.e., Donald Trump]

Correct me if I'm wrong, because I am honestly clueless about economics, finance and business...

but isn't his money mostly electronic though? I mean, stocks and shares...

the billions of dollars in his name, dili man na cold hard cash...they're stock values...

so If Microsoft stocks were to plummet (murag pareho adtong nahitabo sa enron), the bulk of his billions is gonna go poof!

you are very correct C2...

by the way asa naman ang prince sa Kuwait???

he used to be the richest few years back???

but you know what guys?

being rich is not easy...

they work harder than we do...

they woke up earlier than we do...

they only have lots of money that made it so much different...

Mas hayahay pa si Bambi kay ni Bill Gates kay sigi bakasyon sa Pinas!!!

EB TB pa sha, enjoy pa...

si bill if he goes vacation anywhere in the world, naay siging tawag sa phone about business,,,

very restless...

speaking of Bill Gates, here's a forwarded email I received today:

Bill Gates organized an enormous session to recruit a new Chairman for
Microsoft Europe.

5000 candidates assembled in a large room. One candidate is MARIO
DIMACULANGAN.
Bill Gates: Thank you for coming. Those who do not know JAVA may leave.

2000 people leave the room.

MARIO says to himself, 'I do not know JAVA but I have nothing to lose if I
stay. I'll give it a try'

Bill Gates: Candidates who never had experience of managing more than 100
people may leave.

2000 people leave the room.

Mario says to himself ' I never managed anybody by myself but I have
nothing to lose if I stay.
What can happen to me?' So he stays.

Bill Gates: Candidates who do not have management diplomas may leave.

500 people leave the room.

MArio says to himself, 'I left school at 15 but what have I got to lose?'
So he stays in the room.

Lastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak Serbo - Croat to
leave.

498 people leave the room.

MArio says to himself, ' I do not speak one word of Serbo - Croat but what
do I have to lose?'
So he stays and finds himself with one other candidate.
Everyone else has gone.

Bill Gates joined them and said 'Apparently you are the only two candidates
who speak Serbo - Croat, so I'd now like to hear you have a conversation
together in that language.'

Calmly, Mario turns to the other candidate and says `unsa ma na, dong'

The other candidate answers 'ambot, bay..'
