All Windows users out there should thank Bill Gates for his amazing career. I really wonder on what would he spend his 40 billions $
Travel the world? Or buy the world? LOL
His $40 billion! On charity….
hehe well i wish he would spend his 40 billion on me!
He’s a great guy, gets a lot of stick from computer geeks but they should be thankfull really!
LOL - The great thing about Mr. Gates and Microsoft are, despite people hate the Microsoft products quality, they still use them anyway :D
It always strikes me how many successful business people didn’t do well in school. Shows that business is more than being educated (in the formal sense).
The fact that everybody knocks Windows yet it’s still one of the biggest companies in the world is a testament to Gate’s marketing abilities.
Thank you for the information you have written
People just love to knock him but I wish I could accomplish a bit of what he did. No-one gets it right all the time but he got it pretty right most of the time!
I love the fact that Bill Gates now spend a lot of his time/money in charity… kudos for him
It really makes you think about what make a good business man. Reviewing the list of the 10 memorable moment in Bill career I have to say the one thing that runs common in most of the point is the fact that he always made bold and confided moves. For example leaving Harvard, it must of took great self belief to do that.
Any feedback from you?
