Bill Gates the name itself shows a brand.No doubt he is the most richest person.But I believe that he has been rich for so many years only because he has blessings of everyone who loves him and his character.Mr. Gates not only earns money but also spends that money in a right way. He has a very strong character and never thinks about his own profit.He also donates heavily.This all things makes him a great personality.I hope he will continue to be among the richest for few more years from now.

Well Bill Gates started Microsoft and currently, its the biggest IT company that manufactures, produces and markets hardware and software both!
Such visionary individuals are surely rewarded because not only their effort was for themselves but also to change the scenario of the IT industry itself.
I think Steve Jobs will one day reign supreme over Bill Gates. Apple is the future of IT and Internet.

Ho probably doesn't squander his wealth. He got really rich, and continues to do so, by giving generously, and having many sources of passive residual income, besides he gets paid every time someone buys something from Microsoft...

Good evening dear ashutoshs8 , i want to try only to imagine how it is to live for a week in the shoes of this famous rich man Bill Gates , i think i would try to put as much cash as posibbille in my pockets , and when the week is over , i will at least gathered a small fortune ( lowl ) , no really now , leaving joke aside , the main reason why i think that he still remained in the Top of the Richest people of the Plannet list , its simply because they are people whom not even now haven't owned a computer and they just camed to buy it , another reason would be this well known change of Windows Operators , everytime they change a version , most of the factory's are having commands from Stores and supermarkets all across the world , to have the new computer , with the latest Windows version ( Like the way they "found" bugz on Wista , i say that they have left them from the start , knewing that they will sell not good marchandise , and then create a new Windows , and so they sells , even if they maintain their rates of client buying , they continuosly sell and making profit , its a well thinked bussinnes .
Well this is my opinion only , i dont want to make no one believe me , i'm just sharing my view on this subject.
I wish you a great night dear friend , and i wish you all the best.

Could it be that he has more money than anyone else and that is why he is in position number one? In a list of who has more money, they list people in the order of their wealth.
