My best friend's parent is a millionaire.

He lives a "normal" life.

I, in no way look at him differently or envy him. His parents have worked to get where they are, therefore they deserve everything they have.

My cousins family are a VERY rick accept they are so stingy, they dont get me stuff for my birthday or anything and the kids just have everything they have there own cinema a proper one They had lots of friends though but they enjoy the money because they won the lottery and is a change for them when they used to be in a council house

Bill Gates Does Have Children. No - He Is Not Leaving Them ALL His Money. He Is Leaving Them Enough To Live Off For The Rest Of Their Lives. BUT, The Rest Is Going To Charity. He Has Already Spent Millions Helping Charities. Thats Right Folks, Read Up On Things Before You Post Stupid Threads. His Kids Will Live A Comfortable Life, Naturally. Would You As A Parent Want Your Kid To Struggle And Slog? No.

He sure has donated amazing amounts of his money to charities all over the world.

He is not shy to part with his money, and gives away vast sums of it where he see's fit.

It's just not commercialised that he does this, therefore people assume he just sits in his billions laughing away!

A very generous man.

well you know what they say, when im rome.

You're all assuming because they'd be rich they'd want for nothing. Remember Bill Gates had to work very hard for what he has now, I don't think he'd let it all slide now. Hopefully, he'd teach them right and make them work for it.

Well that pretty much sums up this entire thread lol. As for him having kids, yes he has three I agree with alot of the points here in some form, sometimes people are born into rich familys and they are spoilt other times their parents work hard and they teach them the value of money. One thing i would disagree with is the statement that rich kids won't have as much fun!

Can't beleive it took 3 pages someone to realise he already has kids!

Just to correct Tarun on one thing, he hasn't donated millions; he's donated upwards of a billion. Topped off by a recent donation of $800m. Roughly 1/20th of his REAL wealth, not what is tied up in stocks and shares.

He is a VERY generous man
