Bill Gates, one of the founding partners of Microsoft and one of the richest people in the world, held a question and answer event on Reddit. Making evaluations on the agenda at this event, Gates announced that he gave up all his wealth.
In fact, Bill Gates made a statement in July 2022 and said that he would donate all his wealth and leave the list of the richest people in the world. The new statement on Reddit reveals how this will be possible. Bill Gates will leave everything he owns to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which he founded with his ex-wife Melinda Ann French.
Bill Gates will leave not only his cash, but all farmland on it
Bill Gates is a name known for the farmland he bought. As such, Reddit users emphasized this situation. One user even said that this is a contradictory approach. Bill Gates’ answer was clear. The businessman would also dispose of the agricultural lands he owned and put them into the use of the foundation. Let’s explain for those who are wondering: The size of the agricultural lands owned by Bill Gates, as far as is known, is over 275 thousand acres.
“As the money flows into the foundation, everything I own will be sold.” Bill Gates did not explain when the donations will start and how they will continue.
