bill gates stepping down from microsoft

bill gates stepping down from microsoft

obviously hes getting on a bit, so the time was always gonna come, but i didn't expect it yet.

Apparently hes gonna concentrate on charity work, bit of legend imo.

Legend but its not like he needs to effing work anyway

He currently only has like a 12% stake in MS anyway...hes been winding it down for a while.

Hes still gona be Chairman though

He wants to focus on Philanthropy.

genius more like... jealousy is an evil thing....

i think its cracking how he is going into charity work, alot of people in his position would just sit on their arses buying whatever they want on QVC

15 billion hes gonna donate to to start of with, apparently

pennies to him

not to me

me neither i wish, 1 billion would sort you for life

fuck 1 billion i wouldn't no what to do with it, 1 million would do for me

i could spend 1 million easily, a mint house in a mint area will set you back 350 atleast.

then theres all the mint stuff id fill it with

the rest goes on cars holidays and women

yeah but if you have any intelligence you buy the house with a mortgage and use the interest from the million to pay the mortgage ie the 1 million never goes down.

or in vest it and use the money fromthe investment to pay for shit, 1 million can go a long long way if you use it right.

id be happy with an extra quid for my dinner, i left my wallet in the house

if you spent a pound a minute and you were a millionaire you would be skint in 2 years
if you were a billionaire you would be skint in 2000 years

how do you work that out surely it depends on what your money is doing, ie where its being stored, what interest your getting on it and shit.

yeh well thats if you had a billion pounds in one pound notes in a big sock under your bed

oh right cause if you had a billion and spent a pound a minute you probably wouldn't run out of money ever

yeh you'd have to stand in like the pound shop for 2000 years

i would spunk it on drugs and strippers. in £1 installments :laugh:

If I had a million I'd invest in property or bread..

I very nearly started buying a few flats to rent out.. as I figured that as long as they were filled I could pay the mortgages from the rent and then get more properties..

My lass didn't like the idea though so I didn't have the extra financial backing required

Coulda been making a fair bit if it had worked out!
