Same argument could be used for LBJ and Mark Zuckerberg (sp?) the guy who created facebook.

LBJ makes a ridiculous amount of $ but, isn't even close to the Billions Mark has made.

Also 1 thing people always forget about Mr. Gates is regardless of how much $ he has made, he has and will donate a very high % of it to charity....simply amazing.

Honestly, thats too much money. Im not gonna sit here and lie to you and say that i wouldnt want to have money like bill gates but in reality, theres only so much material objects you can have before becoming extremely bored or tired of them. Funding projects and giving away money to charities is the only reasonable thing to do if your a billionaire. Besides giving kids their inheritance

Success is defined differently to each and every one of us. There is no one definition that equates to success. We all measure it in different regards.

i didn't say all of it.

even if he gave 99% of it to charity, he'd still have 100's of millions.....which could buy a beach house a couple square miles bigger than the one you're referring to.
