Default Bill Gates and his fortune...!!!

Read something about Bill Gates and his fortune:

Bill Gates earns $250 every SECOND, that's about $20 Million a DAY and
$7.8 Billion a YEAR!

If he drops thousand dollars, he shouldn't even bother to pick it up
because the 4 seconds it takes to pick it up, he would've already
earned
it back.

The US national debt is about $5.62 trillion. If Bill Gates were to pay
the debt by himself, he will pay it off in less then 10 years.

He can donate $15 to everyone on earth and still be left with $5
Million
as his pocket money.

Michael Jordan is the highest paid athlete in US. If he doesn't drink
and eat,and keeps up his annual income i.e. $30 Million, he'll have to
wait for 277 years to become as rich as Bill Gates is now.

If Bill Gates was a country, he would be the 37th richest country on
earth.

Bill Gates is 40 this year. If we assume that he will live for another
35 years, he has to spend $6.78 Million per day to finish all his money
before he can depart from here.

If you change all of Bill Gate's money to $1 notes, you can make a road
from earth to moon, 14 times back and forth. But it would take 1,400
years (non-stop) to build that road, and use a total of 713 (Boeing
747)
planes to transport all that money.

Here is the last bit of information on his wealth: If Microsoft
Windows' users can claim $1 for every time their computers hang because of Windows, Bill Gates will be bankrupt in just 3 years

Although I am glad that he does give quite a bit to charity..

If I was so rich I think I'd give most of it to charity. If I had £50billion or whatever I'd give £49billion to charity.

Well I think theat money is perhaps the root of evil, but I'm not evil, lol. Sure I'd like to have lots of money, but only enough to buy what I wanted, and there's not much you could buy with £50billion that you couldn't buy with £1billion (except perhaps a small country or a big company, lol)

Well thing is the more u become richer ur life style changes and once ur life style is used to for rich, it is really hard to get back humble way. You may think that u just need a enough money to buy what u want now, but when u have that kind of money, ur ambition also become more and u want more things, the better things. So in a way u never fully get everything u want and i'm sure Bill Gate may want lot of thing like total control over competitor or kill all the competitor for Microsoft . And probably he want a nation which he can name after his company :P(now Spunkywho will kill me ).
Although he have all the money in the world, he still can't buy everything he want .
