[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bill's been a naughty boy, apparently...

I never fell for his phony "do what I say on climate, etc etc".  He doesn't have his own family life together and he's trying to tell other people what to do.  Typical.

Yes, amazing that he is not perfect. Aren't all rich people supposed to be?

I'm in the IT business and I know people how worked with Bill years ago when he was still running the show at Microsoft. He's a brilliant guy -- grasps concepts immediately, and will deep dive into all manner of topics that interest him. He's also got the personality similar to some truly genius people I"ve worked with -- a bit rough around the edges socially, but not the predator type at all -- too timid for that. Even this latest NYT article is not really a bombshell. He's not forcing himself on anyone or anytying like that. He asked out two women, one over email, and never laid a hand on them. Inappropriate given his position of power, and slightly socially awkward, but not some rabid predator.[/quote]

This makes sense.

Plus it must be very hard to stay grounded when that rich and famous.

Charity experts: No changes expected at Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation after divorce

They had a good run for a long time and great they will continue their philanthropic work. The world needs their foundation’s work, married or not. Hope they can remain friends after the divorce.
