💸💥 Bill Gates Surprises Again! Promises to Donate 99% of His Fortune to the Poor in Africa (And He’s Still a Billionaire)
🚀 In an announcement that has left everyone speechless, Bill Gates revealed his decision to donate 99% of his fortune to help those in need in Africa. With this generosity, Gates hopes his epitaph will read "died generous" and not "died rich".
🗣️ "People will say many things about me after my death," Gates commented, "but I am determined that the phrase 'died rich' will not be among them... Doing good is a beautiful thing, and 1% of my fortune is enough for me."
😂 Can you imagine? With that 1%, he would still be a billionaire! A mere 1% of Gates' fortune amounts to billions of dollars, enough to buy a small country, a 400-meter yacht, or, why not, the entire café chain in his neighborhood.
👉 Interesting Fact: According to recent estimates, Bill's fortune is around $130 billion. So 1% would be... $1.3 billion! (Yes, yes, that amount that is enough for your rent this month is enough for Gates to buy a couple of islands in the Bahamas).
🌍 Meanwhile, the remaining 99% could transform millions of lives in Africa, supporting education, health, and sustainable development. An amount of that magnitude could fund programs to eradicate diseases, build infrastructure, create job opportunities, and even plant forests.
💡 Inspiring, right?
What do you think? Do you believe billionaires should donate their wealth or invest in sustainable solutions?
💬 Let me know in the comments, as I want to know if you would donate up to 99% (or at least 1% to buy me a coffee). ☕
