Which one is that I'm desperate. Ok I agree with you, Bill gate really missed the companionship of Melinda. Money can never be his issue.

Make I allow you win the argument so you can be happy this afternoon. I love giving women joy especially those of you who suffer from emotional imbalance and low self esteem.

I will repeat my questions and hopefully you are LOGICAL enough to stay on course and not give me the joy you haven't given to the woman (maybe women?) in your life.

1) Why do you desperately want to have a CONTRARY OPINION on his pain point?

2) You know he has been ranting, meaning you have heard from the "second party" like you guys like to say when divorce issues comes up. Why then do you still have a contrary opinion?


3) Do you know the woman he was married to for over 25yrs more than him?


4) Are you by any means more ingenious or smarter than one of the richest men in the world? He said it is A and you are saying B? Even worse on his own wife?


5) Given that you are familiar with his rants, I bet you have seen him say she was his Product Manager and she built their foundation, so he owes her a lot. They never had a PRENUP, but a mutual agreement. Why then are you pained by the money on his behalf? Would you have been happier if he showed the same level of DISLOYALTY and WICKEDNESS to the wife of his youth as is common with many NIGERIAN MEN?

You created the above thread and you are a typical Nigerian man. You were not having a "CONTRARY" opinion - you are pained he left her with something despite being the cause of the divorce (infidelity). You simply projected your pain on him.

Bill Gates himself has clearly said he regrets the split from a woman who he has known since the 80s and married in the 90s. A woman who has seen him through a lot. But you with 1kva generator and funny brown shoes - thinks it is all about money.

The men without the money always crying on behalf of the rich men. Must be some coping mechanism or schadenfreude for you lots.

Forget plenty talk

Why wouldn't bill gate regret the divorce after he lost 50% of his net worth? from the richest man in the world to down

You are delusional if you think it was actually the relationship with the woman, it is the money that he lost that pained him.

Bill Gates was dethroned in 2018 by Jeff Bezos as the richest man in the world. 3 years before his divorce.

2020 - Still Jeff Bezos. He was 2nd

In 2021, the year of his divorce, he went down to 4th. However, his networth increased by billions of USD.

In 2022, he retained his position as 4th and his networth increased again.

2023, his networth reduced and he went down to 6th. This was definitely the year the money was split.

2024, down to 7th, but networth increased by 50%. It took him a year to regain the money.


You are not only delusional, but you must think we all do not have access to data to see he lost the position AS RICHEST MAN years before his divorce.

As at 1994 they married, Bill Gates was worth $8.2B. As at 2021, he was worth $124B. You want to speak more on a woman he hasn't failed to acknowledge her DIRECT input in his business?

How did you come up with this? Who told you he didn't lose much because the details of their divorce weren't made public — Stop saying what you don't know

Are you even aware that they live in Washington, known as a “community property” state, which meant that all assets acquired during their marriage would be subject to a 50/50 split since there was no prenup?

I'm not even sure but I read that Melinda walked away with $76 billion, but it was not confirmed.

According to FORBES, He was worth around $130 billion at the time of their divorce but was worth around $104 billion 2 years after it.

Baba definitely took a hit but none of us can confirm how bad it was or the real reason behind his rants.

When you reach a level, money does not even matter again. MacKenzie Scott divorced bezos. No fault, no gra gra no contest. Took half. Less than a year later bezos had made the money back.

It was nothing more than an inconvenience for him.

I wonder why they can't see that. If I have a spouse that stood by me and I betray him, Lord knows I will settle him. My conscience won't let me do otherwise.

Some of these guys find it hard to process the fact that there are men (and women) who are not vicious to their spouses upon divorce. Bill Gates hasn't stopped speaking well of her, but no, they want to help him paint her as a demon.

If he paid Melinda about $74 billion and kept over $130 billion to himself then how is that 50/50? I insist Melinda was very nice to him, she could have wrecked him as he will not be able to pay many of his employees. They settled out of court

Omo, Read Adamu, read mehn!🤦‍♂️

How did you know he wasn't wrecked and wouldn't even be able to pay his workers if he was wrecked?

How much do you think is the salary of his workers?

Money can’t be the issue because what he has is too much for one man and even 1000 families

Those guys are living in a different reality, billions of dollars are not billions of naira

Also, she didn’t take much, she took what belonged to her as she was at helm of the company Microsoft from the beginning and had her own shares
