Bill Gates est devenu millionnaire en 1986.
This milestone coincided with Microsoft's initial public offering (IPO), which significantly boosted the value of his ownership stake.
Microsoft's IPO on March 13, 1986, priced shares at $21 each. Gates, then 30 years old, held 45 percent of the company's stock, immediately making him a multi millionaire. This event established him as a prominent figure in the rapidly expanding technology sector.
Today, Bill Gates is the Cofounder of Microsoft (United States). His current influence score is 8/100. This score reflects his ongoing activities in global health and development, although other billionaires currently generate headlines for different reasons, such as political donations; for instance, a second crypto billionaire donated a record $49 million to far right Reform UK.
