Since the establishment of Microsoft in 1975, Gates has held several positions including those of the chairman, CEO and chief software architect. As early as 1987, he was ranked among the world’s wealthiest people by Forbes and has been maintaining this status for more than 30 years. Gates himself states that he is not afraid to take a risk, and the first time he did it was in 1975 when he dropped out of Harvard University to create Microsoft. In 2008, he took a stake and left Microsoft for The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, still remaining its board member with just over 1% of shares. In 2013, he contributed to a $5.5 billion initiative to tackle eradicating polio.
The billionaire is ready to take risks, and in his case, it always pays off. Currently, Bill Gates has a total net worth of $105.8 billion.
Gates stated:
“Whether we invest $100,000 or $100 million, the decision is always calculated. I spend a lot of time thinking, analyzing data and talking to experts to judge whether we can really help make a difference.”
The billionaire’s fortune has significantly increased this year, as Amazon’s stock dropped and the company’s founder Jeff Bezos had to concede the top position in the list of the richest people to Bill Gates.
