Some Interesting Facts about Bill Gates – The former world’s richest Billionaires

William Henry Gates III, a software executive, an American entrepreneur, philanthropist, the chairman of Microsoft and…… The world’s third richest man (as of 18/04/2008). Here are some attention-grabbing fact of Bill Gates other than the awesome Microsoft.
  • Bill Gates earns US$250 every SECOND, that’s about US$20 Million a DAY and US$7.8 Billion a YEAR!
  • If he drops a thousand dollar, he won’t even bother to pick it up bcoz the 4 seconds he picks it, he would’ve already earned it back.
  • The US national debt is about 5.62 trillion, if Bill Gates were to pay the debt by himself; he will finish it in less then 10 years.
  • He can donate US$15 to everyone on earth but still be left with US$5 Million for his pocket money.
  • Michael Jordan is the highest paid athlete in US. If he doesn’t drink and eat, and keeps up his annual income i.e. US$30 Million, he’ll have to wait for 277 years to become as rich as Bill Gates is now.
  • If Bill Gates was a country, he would be the 37th richest country on earth.
  • If you change all of Bill Gate’s money to US$1 notes, you can make a road from earth to moon, 14 times back and forth. But you have to make that road non-stop for 1,400 years, and use a total of 713 BOEING 747 planes to transport all the money.
  • Bill Gates is 40 this year. If we assume that he will live for another 35 years, he has to spend US$6.78 Million per day to finish all his money before he can go to heaven.
  • Last but not the least: If Microsoft Windows’ users can claim US$1 for every time their computers hang because of Microsoft Windows, Bill Gates will be bankrupt in 3 years !!!!!!! !!!!
