I think he has taken the role of financial king with ultimate respect and dignity. Not once have I seen or heard of him dropping a load in Vegas or tooling around recklessly in a Bugatti, dropping cash at strip joints or hitting up the clubs.
Can we not take his discipline as an example of what is required for achievement. Kudo's Mr Gates...........

I have a lot of respect for the guy. The aid he has done for AIDS research and work in Africa is very commendable. So much so that Warren Buffet decided to contribute over time the mass of his wealth to the charity fund that Bill Gates and his wife established. Bill Gates is definitely very smart and made Microsoft into the powerhouse it is. I think he has gotten a little greedy at times, I especially don't like the part where you have to register your Microsoft software after x number of times of using it or it stops. You can only reinstall it once or twice then after that you can't reinstall it again. I figure if I've paid hundreds of dollars for it I should be able to install it as many times as I need as long as I only have the program on one computer.

I think he's very successful and very wealthy! I also like his philanthropy ideas and that he doesn't hoard his money like so many other wealthy people do! He shared his wealth from day one with all the pioneer employees that stuck it out! They are all wealthy individuals now! Mr. Gates puts the real meaning in "Capitalism" where everyone should share in the wealth and not just the top few! It takes an entire community of employees to make a corporation successful and not just the CEO as corporate America portrays itself today! I give Mr. Gates a "10" for his contribution to the corporate world and society!

I think he's a brilliant man. I also think that even though he's recognized as one of the richest men in the world, he seems pretty down-to-earth. I have a lot of respect for the work that the foundation he and his wife have set up. In truth, I'd love to sit down and talk to him. I think he would be a very interesting person to chat with over coffee.

He is an amazing human being. In 30 years he built a multi-billion dollar empire, from almost nothing.
At the peak of his working life, he basically quits running his business, because he has more than enough money.
The ultimate amazement is that he is planning to give most of it away to the sick and poor. I say "God bless him and Mrs. Gates."
