Bill Gates To Share All His Wealth With Others

Bill Gates has recommitted to sharing his wealth with others . As I look to the future, I plan to give virtually all of my wealth to the foundation. I will move down and eventually off of the list of the world’s richest people.

Between 1995 to 2010, and again from 2013 to 2017, Gates was the world’s richest person according to Forbes.

The co-founder of Microsoft declared he will give $20 billion to his charitable organization.

According to Forbes magazine, he is currently worth $118 billion.

The fourth-richest individual in the world claimed he had a “responsibility” to give back his wealth to society.

The Gates Foundation works in developing nations to combat inadequate sanitation, eradicate diseases like malaria, and enhance education.

It is supported by other affluent benefactors including the billionaire investor Warren Buffett and was regarded as the second largest charitable foundation in the world in 2020 with $49.8 billion in assets.

With its annual donation in 2018, the foundation became the second-largest private donor to the World Health Organization behind the US.

In 2010, Gates made a commitment to donate his wealth, but since then, it has more than doubled.
