Bill Gates Is Not the Actual Owner of Microsoft, He Just Owns 1.3%Shares of Microsoft
Inside bill gates $105 investment portfolio. Where does Bill Gates invest?
If you ask anyone who is the richest person in the world? Everyone will point at Jeff Bezos, but the truth is if you take a look at their investment portfolios, bill gates is still significantly wealthier than Bezos. And that is not going to change anytime soon. Bill gates will remain the richest man in the world. Before you throw at me your angry comments, hear me.
Gates first joined the Forbes billionaire list in 1987 when he was just 32 years old. But he wasn’t going to stay there for long; in the next few years, he climbed to the top of the list, and in 1995 he became the world’s wealthiest person. And he held that title until 2017, except 4 of these years when warren Buffett and Carlos Slim exceeded him.
Most people think that Gates’s wealth comes from Microsoft, which is not true. Yes, he founded the company with Paul Allen and was the CEO, but in 2000, he left his position and handed his job to Steve Ballmer at the peak of the dot com bubble.
As a smart investor, gates knew that he couldn’t keep all of his eggs in one basket and has to diversify even though Microsoft turned out to be way more…
