Who doesn't want more money(*in general*)? lol.

Anyway, Bill Gates is using his money to help people around the world. Yeah...he's really not a greedy miser, at least not anymore.

Here's a crazy idea for you, corperations, you know, like Microsoft, Nintendo, Apple and Sony are in the business of making money. They actually want you to buy their products so they can make a profit. The more products, the more money they can make. Shocking I know.

In case you didn't get the memo Bill Gates is leaving M$ next year. It's not him it's the company that wants new markets. No matter how successful a company is the shareholders and board of directers always looks to the CEO for what he will do next to make the comapny expand and stay profitable.

Bill Gates is worth about 60 billion. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will give all but .01% of net worth away buy the time he dies. Each of his kids will get about 10 million dollar.

99% of his money goes to charity and 1% goes to his children. The charity is called the "Charity for my children."

Intelligent post... You do realize that Bill Gates (with help from other billioniares like Warren Buffet) will potentially cure Cancer and other diseases, end poverty, and do more in their lifetime than you and everyone you are related to. Bill gates, even if he leaves his kids 1 billion each (although I remember hearing he's only going to give them 5 million) will still be donating more than $40-50 billion dollars.

lol. nah but who knows he could spend it all by the time he dies lol. just because you give all ur money away right before you die doesnt get you a pass into heaven like hes tryin to do, cus he knows damn well all that money is derrty money. give it away right now andd live a normal life in a 3 bedroom house then ill be impressed. expecially considering the fact that he lives in a 100million dollar house that tracks who is in a room and adjust the room temperature based on the persons preferance and he has heated floors and prolly has a metal gear in his garage or somethin.

Bill Gates does not equal Microsoft. Bill Gates doesn't see a cent from the games you buy nor he has anything to do with the decision making of Microsoft's game sector.

Just because you don't like Bill Gates, does not mean he has not be good for the world. He has work on making American HS up to par with the rest of the world. His work with Bono, and DATA has made great strides in Africa, so much so he named time man of the year for 2005 solely do to this charitable work. You can dislike his business strategy but you can say he has not been a humanitarian

Lol people... I was kidding, Bill Gates is cool (generally speaking.) It's ironic how you misspelled "billionaires" on your rant. Cancer isn't suppose to be capitalized.

Picking out a couple of minor grammatical/spelling errors in an internet forum... classy. If you want to pick out stuff like that though you put a period inside the brackets instead of outside and you used lol, which isn't proper english. Ironic how you made just as many mistakes in a much shorter post which happens to be about my spelling/grammar mistakes.

"Cause" isn't a word there champ. It's either "because" or 'cause, and even then 'cause isn't something you should use in any form of formal writing, which you seem to think that an internet forum is.

That is true, theres been lots of speculation that it was a defensive measure to protect their monopoly. Sony was pushing the PS2 as a computer (and is doing it even more with PS3) and Microsoft was afraid that it would only further erode their marketshare that has been getting slow-bled by open source OSes and programs and penalized in various anti-trust suites. [QUOTE="BosoxJoe5"] Bill Gates is worth about 60 billion. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will give all but .01% of net worth away buy the time he dies. Each of his kids will get about 10 million dollar.

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation only donates something like 5% of it's assets yearly towards their professed goals, the other 95% is invested. That is poor even by non-profit standards (which is something like 15-20%).

Bill Gates does not equal Microsoft. Bill Gates doesn't see a cent from the games you buy nor he has anything to do with the decision making of Microsoft's game sector.

Bill Gates has something like a 20% share in Microsoft, hes the largest shareholder in the company...so yeah, he does make money when Microsoft makes money (especially considering at least until next year hes CEO).

Yes Bill Gates makes money but indirectly, he makes money as a shareholder and spokesman. Just because he makes money as a shareholder does not mean he is responsible for the decisions which are made in the game division of Microsoft or any other division for that matter.

When you have the power to eliminate things like poverty and disease you are held to a higher standard than the average person.

They do that for publicity and tax write offs that saves them millions

Bill Gates is worth about 60 billion. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation will give all but .01% of net worth away buy the time he dies. Each of his kids will get about 10 million dollar.

99% of his money goes to charity and 1% goes to his children. The charity is called the "Charity for my children."

Intelligent post... You do realize that Bill Gates (with help from other billioniares like Warren Buffet) will potentially cure Cancer and other diseases, end poverty, and do more in their lifetime than you and everyone you are related to. Bill gates, even if he leaves his kids 1 billion each (although I remember hearing he's only going to give them 5 million) will still be donating more than $40-50 billion dollars.

Lol people... I was kidding, Bill Gates is cool (generally speaking.) It's ironic how you misspelled "billionaires" on your rant. Cancer isn't suppose to be capitalized.

Picking out a couple of minor grammatical/spelling errors in an internet forum... classy. If you want to pick out stuff like that though you put a period inside the brackets instead of outside and you used lol, which isn't proper english. Ironic how you made just as many mistakes in a much shorter post which happens to be about my spelling/grammar mistakes.

Again, you didn't capitalize English...anyways, I pointed that out cause you were trying to be classy.

"Cause" isn't a word there champ. It's either "because" or 'cause, and even then 'cause isn't something you should use in any form of formal writing, which you seem to think that an internet forum is.

Lol, grasping at straws now?

[QUOTE="InfamousC"]In case you didn't get the memo Bill Gates is leaving M$ next year. It's not him it's the company that wants new markets. No matter how successful a company is the shareholders and board of directers always looks to the CEO for what he will do next to make the comapny expand and stay profitable.lawlessx
read the article again..hes not going to be the CEO of microsoft next year..didnt say anything about him leaving.

what are you talking about he isn't ceo now he is only chairman. he is leaving in 2008.

Jealousy is a ugly color. Every person wants more coin in their pocket and every company wants to get bigger.

You're the one who started nitpicking about spelling and grammar bud. If you're going to criticize someone about something, you better be able to back it up.

When you have the power to eliminate things like poverty and disease you are held to a higher standard than the average person.

Really? I didn't know Bill Gates is God. Stop saying because he has money he should give it away. Heck, why not ask governments to stop spending money on arms and use the funds for education and stuff. That would have a bigger effect.

If you want those things like cure disease then work hard and you do it. Bill gates worked for his money. Also since you know he spends nothing on disease try researching. The man just in one donation spent 200 million of his own dime to Africa for aids. And has given so much more at other times. He gives more to fight aids then almost another other country. Plus other charities

What really interests me is that people don't expect wealthy countries such as U.S and UK to eliminate hunger rather they look at individuals for this matter. I'm not saying its not Gates responsibility to help as a human being but rather when it comes to abolishing poverty it's a social responsibility rather than a individual one.

There won't be a cure for cancer and many other diseases like aids for a very long time as these are man made diseases to control population. A cure that is accessible by the mass public anyway.

I do. The US has spent over 1 trillion dollars in Iraq. I don't know about the people here, but I think that there are about 1 trillion better investments for that money. I live in Canada so I can't speak for Americans, but wouldn't you rather have a better education system or free healthcare? I know I would.
