No imgine being Bill Gates, he could have 400 rooms with that much cash based on the most current Forbes list.

This was years ago but Gates said he only planned on leaving his kids $200,000 each. The rest of the money would go to charity, he said he wanted his kids to work hard for their money like he did.

I respect him for that... More people need to be like that.

For example, we had this kid come in today, this kid I swear is like 10 years old, but hes smart as ****... hes building his second computer, he brought a list in for us to look at and let him know if it was good to go. He had probably about a 1.5k-2k computer, which was pretty damn good. His graphics CARDS alone were 1,000, hes running dual sli, 500 a piece... I was like, must be nice to have your parents fund your dream computer.

If my dad was worth billions of dollars and he left me only $200,000 and gave the rest to charity, I would makes plans to have him killed much earlier.

I'm going off what he said like 15 years ago so he very well could have changed his mind since then and upped it.

Even 2 mil is not enough. I'd be expecting no less then $100 mil. It's the least he could do considering as his kid, I probably wouldn't be allowed to have an Ipod or use Mozilla. I'd be stuck getting a blue screen of death every day of my existence because of him.
