Bill Gates is Awesome

[desteffy]

As much as so many people think he is evil, he gives so much money to good causes, how can you hate him?

The couple's Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has a 29 billion dollar endowment making it the world's biggest charity.

A lot of that is his wife's influence, but, yes, he is doing amazing things with his money.

Yea I remember him saying on 60 minutes years ago that his kids would get like 10 million each and that is all. Something like that is more then he ever got but made his own way etc... I respect that a LOT. Look at sam waltons kids and what his happened to wal-mart after he passed away. I think bill has it right. :thumbsup:

His kids aren't going to be hurting with a mere 10 million. Plus, Bill has probably instilled a sense of frugality in them. I mean, he still has that same horrible $8 haircut from 1984.

UNfortunately Bill hasn't given any to me, so he gets just an OK rating. : )
