Bill Gates.\n\nWilliam Henry Gates III (born October 28, 1955) is the co-founder, chairman, and chief software architect of Microsoft Corporation, the world's largest computer software company.

Bill Gates \n\nIt's too bad we can't all be rich enough to have special computers built for us in the Internal Revenue Service's office. Yahoo is reporting that Bill Gates is just that rich! At a conference in Lisbon, Gates claimed:\n\n    "My tax return in the United States has to be kept on a special computer because their normal computers can't deal with the numbers. So I am constantly getting these notices telling me I haven't paid something when really it is just on the wrong computer. Then they will send me another notice telling me how bad they feel they that they sent me a notice that was a mistake."\n\nSo the United States' tax office doesn't have a "normal" PC capable of handling finances in the range of US$49 billion? I'm not surprised. But if the office does need a "special" computer with a presumably "special" operating system for Bill, what OS is on all of the "wrong" computers? This is must-know info for anyone planning to start an US$80 billion software company!

Bill Gates' wealth totals about $70 billion. (The exact amount varies with the stock market.)\n\nThe President is probably not a BILLIONaire, but he certainly has MILLIONS of dollars.\n\nBut you should understand that he had millions of dollars BEFORE becoming President of the US. His presidential salary is not large enough to have had a big effect on his net worth.

Mr Bill Gates\nHere is a small account of his wealth he owns.\nRead it completely. \n\n1. Bill Gates earns $250 every SECOND, that's about $20 million a DAY\nand $7.8 billion a YEAR! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2. If he drops a thousand dollars, he won't even bother to pick it up because in the 4 seconds it takes to pick it up, he would have already\nEarned it back. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3. U.S's national debt is about $5.62 trillion. If Bill Gates wants to\npay the debt by himself; he will finish it in less then 10 years. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4. He can donate $15 to everyone on earth and still be left with $5\nmillion for his pocket money. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5. Michael Jordan is the highest paid athlete in the U.S. If he\ndoesn't drink and eat, and keep his annual income at $30 million,\nhe'll have to wait for 277 years to become as rich as Bill Gates is\ntoday. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6. If Bill Gates were a country, he will be the 37th richest country on earth. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n7. If you change all of Bill Gate's money to $1 bills, you can make a\nroad from earth to moon 14 times back and forth. But you will have to\nmake that road non-stop for 1400 years, and use a total of 713 BOEING \n747 planes to transport all the money. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8. Bill Gates will be 42 this year. If we assume that he still can\nlive for another 35 years, he has to spend $6.78 million per day to\nfinish his money before his death. \n\n\n\nThe Best Part…………………….. \n\n\n\n\n\n9. BUT!!! If we the Microsoft Windows users claim $1 for every time\ntheir computers hang because of Microsoft Windows, Bill Gates will go\nbankrupt in 3 years.

Bill Gates, but most of it is in Microsoft stock. I think he should sell all and buy his own country! Anyway, the most wealthy family is the Waltons. They own the Wal-Mart chain.\n\nAnyway Bill is so rich that he can buy a $200,000 Lamborghini, and the purchase would be proportionate to a regular person buying a $0.50 candybar!

I think Bill Gate's WIFE should get the prize.  He was a cheap, money hoarding nerd until he married her.  Never gave a penny to anyone else.  Marriage and kids have made him see there are others in the world besides himself.

First of all Bill Gates is not a celebrity.  Second, Oprah is by far the richest celebrity.  And she does not rely on getting movie roles, she already has a successful show and magazine that I cannot see going out of style anytime soon.  That woman makes serious amounts of dollars, it makes me sick.  I think she should adopt a third world country =)
