"I want to be a millionaire. Buy everything I want. I want to be the cover of Forbes magazine. Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen .."
Bill Gates is often tempted by his children singing song of Bruno Mars
Pieces of the song was often sung children's Bill Gates for his father. This is not a children's song written by Gates, but this song titled of 'Billionaire' by Bruno Mars and Tracy McCoy which it was popular last year. "They often tease me with that song, that song was funny," said by Gates.
For most people, the song was probably an irony, but for the song as Gates describes himself. At the age of 55 years, Gates has often become the cover of Forbes magazine. Microsoft, the company he founded with Paul Allen in 1975 is now worth U.S. $ 400 billion.
While Oprah Winfrey is a close friend. They both often together to contribute to those who can not afford. What about the Queen of England? Gates was given honorary knighthood by Queen Elizabeth in 2005.
Besides Bruno Mars, kids of Gates, Jennifer, 15, Rory, 12, and Phoebe, nine, also introduced Gates with songs Lady Gaga. "But the second son used to say stop when they hear that Lady Gaga, she feared her brother heard the words," Gates was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail, Saturday, June 11, 2011.
Gates is the second richest in the world. His position was dropped, he was shifted by Mexican businessman Carlos Slim last year, after becoming the number one rich man almost two decades. Gates falling to number two this is considered natural, because, he donated U.S. $ 28 billion, so that his wealth is now 'live' U.S. $ 56 billion.
Although a money sacks, Gates apparently did not want to bequeath his entire estate to Jennifer, Rory and Phoebe. "I feel the money for it is not good for them," Gates said.
So how Gates would inherit for his son? She would not mention specific figures. But some reports said each of his children 'only' will be U.S. $ 10 million.
According to Gates his children should be independent and not dependent. "But about the educational course I'll support them, including their health, but they should work according to what they want," said Gates.
Gates wanted his children to work hard like he did at age 20. "I never take vacations when I was young, I still work hard but not like before," Gates said.
Today Gates took time to play tennis and bridge also spend time with family. He also likes to drive his luxury cars like Mercedes, Lexus and Porsche.
When Gates chose driving luxury cars, their oldest daughter likes to ride horses. Gates was asked if his children want the iPad, iPhone and iPod? His face instantly hardened. "They've got a Zune, Microsoft's MP3-player," he said.
