Microsoft co-founder and billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates has sparked discussions with a bold statement about his immense wealth. During a recent interview, Gates remarked, “Even if I lose 99% of my wealth, I would still have $1.3 billion,” highlighting the staggering size of his fortune.
With an estimated net worth of over $130 billion, Gates remains one of the richest individuals in the world. His comment has drawn mixed reactions online, with some praising his financial success and philanthropy, while others point out the stark contrast between billionaires and the general public.
