Bill Gates-inheritance


The world’s top billionaire Bill Gates and his wife Melinda have three children – Jennifer, 20, Rory, 17, and Phoebe, 14.
He was on ITV‘s This Morning in the UK where he confirmed once again that majority of their wealth will go to charity, and only ‘a little bit’ to their kids after their demise.
“Our kids will receive a great education and some money so they will never be poorly off but they’ll go out and have their own career.
It’s not a favour to kids to have them have huge sums of wealth. Because it distorts anything they might do, in creating their own path and this money is dedicated to helping the poorest.
They know that, they’re proud of that.”
He said him and his wife will leave ‘a little bit’ for them and buttressed that his kids follow him and his wife on charitable missions and see the impact the money has on lives.

Akanna Okeke: 6 Ways to Make People Like You

   I’ve been told numerous times that I am very likable and I have seen this for myself too.  Somehow, I just seem to obtain the favour of those around me; from bosses to teachers, to friends to colleagues.  I remember leaving my last job and there was a send off gathering where each co-worker was asked to say what they thought about me.  I got comments like: “He’s a politician”; “He’s in everybody’s camp”; “No, he’s smart and diplomatic. He knows how to please everybody and stay close to key people”.
