50 Things To Know About Bill Gate by HCpaul(m): 11:22pm On Feb 09, 2015 |
50 Things to know about Bill Gate. 1. Gates attended the exclusive Lakeside School, one of handful schools in the US with a computer terminal at the time. Gates interest in the computer programming was such that he was excused from Math classes to pursue it. 2. Gates hacked his school program to schedule students in classes, changing the code so that he was placed in classes with “disproportionate number of interesting girls.” 3. At 17, Gates sold his first computer program, a timetable system for his high school for which he pocketed a $4,200. 4. At Harvard he told professors that he would become a millionaire before he was 30. By 31 he was a billionaire. 5. In 1975, Gates dropped out of Harvard and joined his childhood friend Paul Allen to form a company which they named “Micro- Soft.” The hyphen fell off within a year. 6. During the first five years of the company, Gates reviewed every single line of code the company shipped. 7. A money machine in the most authentic sense of the word would show that Gates makes in average about $250 per second, $15,000 per minute, and almost $20 million every day. His net worth briefly surpassed $101 billion 1999, causing the media to call “centibilionaire.” 8. If he was a country, Gates would be the 37th richest country on earth.
