The reason he gave it away ...to become richer.

If you donate to a foundation, hospital or University,etc , one can get twice the amount in Tax Credits.

He has given 55 billion, now he can avoid taxes to 110 Billion.

Future income for the next 7 years, will be tax free. Taxpayers robbed.

Now you can see envy and contempt.

You sound like an accountant dude.Will counter that argument on two points.How many ruch people do you know gave away 50 billion dollars to charitable causes?...and that amount of cash must have done some degree of good.Most rich cnuts dont give a toss about those less fortunate.All am saying.Give credit where due.

Bill Gates’ Chinese Interpreter Is Being Accused of Breaking Up His Marriage With Melinda Gates

Bill Gates and Melinda Gates’ carefully crafted statement on the end of their marriage made a few key points clear, but left the public utterly without clues on what might have prompted the dissolution of their relationship after 27 years and raising three kids together. In that vacuum, rumors have begun to flow, as they always do about high-profile splits, and one colleague of Bill Gates’ has found herself in the crosshairs: Chinese interpreter Zhe “Shelly” Wang, who has worked for The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation since 2015. While it’s unclear exactly where the rumors started, at least one popular tweet alleging a romantic relationship between Wang and Bill Gates can be found, and the rumors that Wang was the reason for his split from Melinda grew to the extent that she allegedly issued a public response on Chinese social media platform Weibo, per Page Six.

Wonder if he divulged any (technical) secrets.
