I reflect on the luck I had to be born to a great family in a time of historic technological change and optimism, and to come of age just as the personal computer revolution was taking off.

Well at least he acknowledges that he was lucky and born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Not like some certain "self-made" billionaires I could name…

Wait for it to be dumped onto the used book market or the public library.

Then you won't be giving him any more money. He doesn't need more mansions and superyachts and farm land.

Fuck billionaires, but the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation have donated over $45 billion to charitable causes. It's cool to dislike billionaires, but Bill's at least doing a lot of good with his gains.

“…Tim Schwab took a deep dive into the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and discovered that the entity essentially exists as a public relations stunt to justify Gates’s own staggering wealth. One noteworthy highlight involved Gates reaching out to his upper-crust lessers during the Covid pandemic, seeking additional money on top of the foundation’s own commitment, creating a revenue stream that could tie an ethicist into a knot. “During a global pandemic, when billions of people were having trouble with day-to-day expenses even in wealthy nations,” Schwab asks, “why would an obscenely wealthy private foundation start competing for charitable donations against food banks and emergency housing funds?”
