Check out how the richest people (Microsoft CEO here) behave haha they really don't care about what the world thinks of a successful CEO's behavior! Gates and Ballmer are funny actually

hahahahahhahahhaha
that last scence of the video is hilarious

Ballmer is such a douche, his views on open source are dismal and shameful, all he cares about is money, what a corporate load of junk.

Did anyone see what Bill Gates drives and where he lives ???











Location

Bill Gates’ house is a large earth-sheltered mansion in the side of a hill overlooking Lake Washington in Medina, Washington. To please the crowd that see Gatesy as a sexual object (I hear there is a huge bucket load of you out there), 1835 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039, is his exact address. If anyone plans on stalking moneybags, be careful, apparently the place is protected by robots that are equipped with lazor guns. No, really.
Design

The house was designed by a guy called James Cutler, the best-known architect of Northwest Style, apparently. “Pacific lodge” is the chosen style for the residence. What does that mean exactly? Well, it’s just made from huge wooden panels to give it a “cabin lodge” effect from what I can make out. Can anyone explain further?

There has been lot of speculation that the house was designed on a Macintosh. I’m guessing only computer geeks will “speculate” about which type of computer the Microsoft Mogal used to design it. Normal people wouldn’t give a damn. I’m sure if you search on Google for long enough, you’ll find someone called Howard who has whipped up an article in his parents’ basement, on how Bill Gates backstapped his own company by using a Mac to design his house.

Pictures of the Gates’ complex are both private and copyrighted- what a shame. There are a lot of pictures available, but they’re mainly of the building exterior and the grounds. Additionally, information regarding the house is quite limited.
Features

* The house occupies 50,000 square feet on 5.15 acre land. Garage space and outbuildings occupy an additional 16,000 square feet

* Swimmers can dive under a glass wall and emerge outdoors by a terrace
* Lights automatically come on when you enter a room
* Speakers are hidden beneath the wallpaper to allow music to follow from room to room
* Visitors to the residence are surveyed and given a microchip upon entrance. This small chip sends signals throughout the house, and a given room’s temperature and other conditions will change according to preset user preferences
* grand staircase
* large private library with a domed reading room
* formal dining room
* exercise room
* outdoor sports courts
* Property records indicate eight bedrooms and four building levels
* Much of the Bill Gates house is built underground into the hill, so the house looks smaller than it actually is.

* Gates insisted on saving a 40 year old maple adjacent to the driveway. The tree is monitored electronically 24 hours per day via computer. If it seems dry, it gets just the right amount of water automatically delivered
* All woodwork is flawless. Much of the woodwork is of various rare types from all over the world – imported especially for this house
* The theater (underground in a concrete shell) is the most state of the art theatre in the world according to specialty contractor

Worth

My mate Billy actually purchased the plot of land for $2million back in 1988. After 7 years of intensive makeovers; according to King County public records, as of 2005, the total assessed value of the property (land and house) is $200 million, and the annual property tax is $991,000. I imagine it’s probably worth more than that now.

these ppl are genius!
geniuses are weird!

u konw I've always always hated bill gates and everything Microcock stood for. Monopolies, forcing computer manufacturers to use ONLY their operating system, etc.

But if you look at his and his wife's foundation and how much money they've donated, i've changed my tune. The guy has spent more of his own money on disease research and charities in Africa than most 1st world countries have. He's also put a tiny tiny amount (comparing to his riches) on the side for his kids, while the rest of his fortune will all go to charities in the future. Thats pretty schweeet.

^ yup! when it comes to business he's a bad ass! but come to think of it.. in business this is the criteria to becoming successful! as the CEO of Microsoft no one can deny the help and advances he created with his work. all our lives are way easier because of Microsoft in general and Bill Gates in specific! his revolutionary ideas are what made more than 90% of the users worldwide operating on Microsoft products.
the Gates' contribution to charity is unmatchable by anyone so far! more than half of his wealth is gone to charity! if only the other rich ppl would follow his lead!

What Gates does deserves a lot of respect. Unfortunately it's very rare to find such a rich guy who cares about people from another continent... did this lebanese guy Carlos Slim donate even 0.1% to Lebanon for example? pfff...
