- With a net worth of approximately $89 billion, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is one of the wealthiest men in the world. If he spent $1 million a day, it'd take him 245 years to spend his fortune. Here's how he made all that cash.
In 1975, Gates co-founded Microsoft. At 31, he became the world's youngest billionaire at the time. In 1995, he released Windows 95 and became the world's richest man. He's been at the top of the list ever since. Gates is also a leading philanthropist.
He stepped down as Microsoft CEO to focus on the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. It has given away $41.3 billion to charity. Gates doesn't forget to splurge on himself, though. He bought a $21 million jet in 1997. He's had tons of luxurious cars over the years. He even once got arrested for speeding in a Porsche 911. Gates has an extensive art collection. In 1988, he spent $36 million on a Winslow Homer painting.
That piece hangs in his $63 million home in Seattle. It has 24 bathrooms, 6 kitchens, a reception hall that holds 200 people, a home theater, and an artificial stream stocked with fish.
In 2010, Bill, Melinda, and Warren Buffett created the "The Giving Pledge." Those who join pledge to give half of their wealth to charity.

I like how he only spent millions of dollars, while he made billions of dollars.
Good tips for if you win the lottery I guess.
He have given 41 Billion dollars to charity in the last few years.
Thanks for being a attentive and supportive person of the earth.
He should have donated 82 billion
NoName How much have either of you made or donated? Nowhere near as much as him. Maybe you should focus on what you're doing for charity instead of bashing the person who has literally donated more than anyone else in the world.
the right kind of billionaires the world need. Gates ftw!!!
Inderjit Singh so we can all live equally shitty lives
Tech Life he isn’t the richest man in the world , Jeff bezos the owner of Amazon is worth 90 billion ...
Mario so basically a guy who donated 41 billion dollars, set up a pledge to donate half his health is essentially a dickhead? Nice thinking
Zakary McGuire He would’ve had way more if didn’t grave it to charity
Zakary McGuire His nerd statement still stands. Jeff Bezos is a nerd as well. In fact, like all of the top 5 richest people are.
$36,000,000 painting god damn
Martin Salinas probably worth more now
Yeah I love how the painting is worth more than half of the house
O K most likely it will keep going up in price
Martin Salinas thst was not worth it i can just paint it lmao
spent millions on his home but donated billions to charity
Gates, come back to Microsoft! Xbox is becoming more anti-consumer than Ubisoft.
Paul Soroka how?
Paul Soroka only thing anti consumer Xbox has done was holding the Xbox one X back because of the ones who own an s
Joey Brown it's because of xbox live
James Ramirez yeah what's wrong with it? It being 60 a year? That's the only thing I could see wrong with it
And the fact that it's overpriced. They're basically capitalizing on the fact that idiots believe that our eyes can only see 30 fps, and they're consoles are weaker, so people don't notice. You end up getting a 400-500 dollar console that can achieve the same speeds as a 300 dollar PC that you built yourself. Also, paying for the ability to play with your friends shouldn't be there. I hate it when people say that they're paying for servers because they're not. The people that own the games pay for the servers.
Given 41 billion to charity..holy fuck
DublinDapper
When he dies, they are going to make an 80 billion dollar modern city.
DublinDapper that's pocket change for him imagine!!!
And he still has 89 billion , he literally can't give it away fast enough.
I need to step up my game. I’m behind - 1st grader
This Little Critic actually the lottery mainly goes to the government and you get 40 percent if you hit big time but if it’s small like 10 k or less then it’s all for u
This Little Critic you play fortnite, you're not going anywhere in life
This Little Critic you suck
Bill if you need some help to spend you billions give me a call...📞📞📞
1 billion will help me live the rest of my life
Why does he need 6 kitchens tho
addc 01 That would be good for me tho I am a polygamist
Sarah Cecilia gives 41billion to charity and he's greedy ok
Sarah Cecilia
I hope you're a nun/monk because there are plenty of people living in poverty waiting for you to save them. Please enlighten us and lead the way.
Sarah Cecilia
Okay but if you ever get the chance to make it big, remember to give it all away at once. There's obviously no need for any sort of material goods for an enlightened one such as yourself.
ok but you do realise people give about 5% of their wealth to charity where as Bill has given a lot more.
Bill-Billi->Billio->Billion
Hey i am richer than ...i have $90
You are richer than me
Now bill has 92 billion so lol😆😆😆😆
Guys I have a fact for you about Bill Gates:
He didn't get a single A in his grades,he got B or low! 😮
This is how I became a millionaire:
I stole it all from my grandma
Imagine being that rich to spend 1 mil every day for 245 years.
Damn Young Bill looking good.
If I ask him for a sandwich he might pay my whole rent...
Please give money to fund Rheumatoid Arthritis research.
Ali Khan he wont
What is charity anyway ? Buying people an extended life warranty?
All of us have a life warranty, if you think about it. Medicine is just extending the warranty
Fist of all , not all his 89 billion dollars is cash.
Bill,Give Me 1million, thats enough for my whole life 😂
That's 1:42 mins of my life i'll never get back.
Crazy Rich
Bill Gates knows how to spoil himself at the same time gives back to charity knowing to give back to those less fortunate than him, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg have earned my respect 👍👍👍👍
His house is not of $63 Million but of $121 Million.

Steve Beazos (I think I spelled that wrong) the founder of amazon is now richer with over 100 billion
he is at a level where he doesn't have interest in money anymore. lol
If I spend 1 million dollars every day I would be broke in 0,0000003 days
It would take him 25 years to spend it
Nigga wtf
Bill Gates=1 gate
Billion gate=1 billion gates
That man was part of my Boy Scout troop
"gates doesn't forget to splurge on himself"
PS4 is better than Xbox

Why the hell do you need 24 bathrooms
He gave away 41 billion but I'm yet to receive a cent.
*I call fraud*
my kind of models
What the hell could a man have a use for 6 kitchens and 24 BATHROOMS? Maybe he often host several business I guess
Wait.... if he spends 1 billion a year....... *thinking stuff in my head* that means...... 83 million a month........ HE CAN SPEND 2 MILLION A DAY DEPENDDING ON WHAT MONTH IT IS!
I love bill gates
Do you really need 24 bathrooms
If I spended $100 a day I would be broke after 12 year
be the change that you want to see in the world 12 years? I’d be broke in a month
24 bathrooms. I am done...
Alrededor de 795 millones de personas en el mundo no tienen suficientes alimentos para llevar una vida saludable y activa. Eso es casi uno de cada nueve personas en la tierra. La gran mayoría de personas que padecen hambre en el mundo viven en países en desarrollo, donde el 12.9% de la población presenta desnutrición.
If I spent a dollar a day
I’d be in debt a dollar
Selling food in Brazil!!!! LOL

I wouldn't give a dime to charity
@Bus Insdr
What I can see as per topic - How he spends money?
Where is the rest -How he makes money?
He eats the money
So what I got from this was bill gates wants to see my benis?
1 million a day...245 years wtf.
He can hire me to help him spend the money 👍🙏💯
And Trump gives away Kitchen rolls to people that don’t need Kitchen rolls.
The world would be a better place if Bill Gates was black
Oh, i forgot about Oprah Winfrey

I'm trying not to hate him but I really can't help it
Time Keeper oh fuck off, were using technology because we can. Also learn porper grammer
Arrow jealous
mohamad Zahlen idiot
Can I get some of that?

And when asked by a university student for advice on how to become as rich as him, his reply: 'Once you get beyond a million dollars, it's still the same hamburger'. Funny, I have over a million dollar net worth and still fell poor as he!!. Maybe he hasn't yet heard the term that a million dollars isn't what it used to be. Talk about the wealthy being out of touch.
Now,Jeff Bezos is the richest man in this world👌
I thought Jeff bezos was the richest man in the world right now
-_-
Well honestly I think that people who spend millions on paintings are just dumb. Bill Gate is kinda dumb tho
bill good lad, good lad bill
If you guys like this video, you'll probably enjoy the videos I post!!! (Interviews with Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and other famous people!!)
One soul at a time and ta da! 89 million souls later and here we are.
oof jeff bezos
human purpose => leverage human functions=> software replaces write(), archive(), which humans do mist of the time; there you have it if you wanna be rich replace a human function that we do everyday
I can understand everything but the 24 bathrooms and no one is talking about it.🤔
I have no idea why so many people still have to follow what others read...maybe it’s the overall identity crisis of this generation...
How much shit u have to make to by a 24 bathrooms house? XD
Thats alot of money to buy him
One year ago I pleaded in getting a sofa n bed im 70 yrs not one dime in my charity request.
