How much does Bill Gates make?

sabb0007
Supposedly right now Bill Gates is worth about 56 billion dollars.
I ran a few calculations to get some interesting results.

$1,750,000,000 per year on average from the year 1975, when Microsoft was founded.

Supposing he works about 260 days a year, that equals out to be:
$6,730,769.23 per day of work.

Supposing her works 8 hours per day: $841,346.15 per hour

$14,022.44 per minute

$233.71 per second of work over the last 32 years. Not bad for a college drop out.

    He's sort of the Edison of our times - doesn't really invent all that much on his own, but knows who to hire to invent stuff for him so he can make the big bucks.

    Enough that he could pay off my car, my motorcycle, and any other bills, and pay for the mods that I want to do to my truck and my bike, and not miss any of it.

    I'd say he could do that for thousands of people and never notice it.

    And the funniest thing of all about Bill Gates and his partner at the time is.

    They sold the concept of Windows and did not actually have a working system at the time. They only had a few days to show it to whom ever they sold it to.


    Kind of like selling a Gun with No box.

    I agree with that statement.

    Who, on earth, would do something that mean.
