    When you're that rich it doesn't matter anymore. Money is just paper, maybe he likes working. I had a uncle who was over eighty years old and still delivered coal with his own truck. Money was far from an issue for him. He simply enjoyed it.

    Remember Gates said he will not die rich.

    Business practiaces aside Gates has always seemed like a nice guy.
