1. William H. Gates III\n\nAge: 43\nNationality: American\nMartial Status: Married\nChildren: 2\nEducation: Harvard dropout\nWorth: $90 Billion\n\nWe should all just face the fact that Bill Gates will one day rule the world. By the time Windows 2015 comes out, all will fear Bill's wrath. But you gotta admit that it doesn't look like it went to his head; the richest human on Earth, and he has the dorkiest haircut money could buy.\n\nThe son of a lawyer father and teacher mother, Gates dropped out of preschool to devote all of his time to inventing Microsoft with chum Paul Allen, then just 3 years old. After drooling all over the HVAC tubes, Bill decided to go back to school for a few more years, eventually dropping out of Harvard University to work on Microsoft.\n\nThe rest, as they all too frequently say, is history. Microsoft became this huge international corporate behemoth, and is currently fighting off anti-trust investigations and accusations that it holds a monopoly. When Bill rules the world, he's going to come down and fire those federal court judges with extreme prejudice. They'll never work on his planet again!\n\nGates relinquished his role as President of Microsoft in 1998, and as CEO on January 13, 2000; both posts are now held by Steve Ballmer. However, Bill remains Chairman and "chief software architect" of the company, as well as its largest shareholder. So they still let him come to board meetings.\n\nMr. Bill once gave $17 Billion to charity, which makes Ted Turner's paltry offering of $1 billion to the UN look like chump change. He's also written a couple of books and is heavily invested in biotechnology and cellular and satellite technology. Investors, call your brokers.\n\nSo to get onto our list of the Seven Habits of Highly Effective Billionaires, you must: join Microsoft (preferably early on), be an oil baron, drop out of college, get married, have 3.1 kids, inherit lots of money, and bleed your people dry.

The total number of hours Gates has worked since Microsoft was founded, in 1975, can be determined by multiplying the following numbers: \n\n80 hours/week average work week.\n52 weeks in a year.\n22 years.\n\n\n80 times 52 times 22 = 91520 \n\nBill Gates' current net worth is estimated to be $26 billion. (I used $20 billion in the original letter because that's the net worth I heard he had last month.) \n\n$26 billion divided by 91520 = $218,531/hour. \n\nOut of curiosity, how much is this above minimum wage? \n\n218,531 subtracted by 5 gives 218,526. \n\nUsing the average hourly income of $218,000/hour, you multiply the average number of hours he works per day (16), by 218,000, and you get $3.5 million (give or take a couple hundred thous.) \n\nBill Gates goes to sleep $3.5 million richer than when he woke up\n\nHe deserves this kinda money for his smart brain.

what happened to my child's knee? now you got me worried...\n\nof course it is not entirely fair, but name a better system. how many people does bill gates directly and indirectly support. a lot more than you can count. if you crunched the numbers it would still be an incredible difference, but not as much as you think on first look.
