Howard Schultz: “Holy s**t” moment with Bill Gates Sr. paved my future

Businessman, author and former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz recalls the meeting with Bill Gates Sr. that changed both the trajectory of his life and Starbucks Coffee Company. Howard refuses to name the investor that attempted to steal Jerry Baldwin’s offer from him. He also illustrates the scene of Bill coaxing the investor out of purchasing the company and subsequently deeming Starbuck’s as Howard’s own. #Starbucks #BillGates #Business

His book, Bill Gate Sr’s, is a great read!

A superb story, I'd never heard before, about my old friend *Bill Gates Sr.* from Howard Schultz. Growing up, that's what Bill and Mary Maxwell Gates did for everyone in the community. They were advocates, colleagues, and friends. My family sure missed them both, very much! *#ShowingUpForLife*
