Bill Gates Yacht

[Bilgamesh]

I used to have a vintage Bronco that I restored to some degree. I often visited the classic broncos forum. Everybody there used to like to post pictures of Broncos that belong to celebrities like Ted Nugent or ones that showed up in movies and other media. It was kind of fun to see stuff like that. I came across this one today. It's about what you would expect for a guy who has more money than God:

Re: Bill Gates Yacht

This is the 31st largest privately owned yacht in the world and sits right outside my condo complex. I am sure many of you have seen it in Ft Lauderdale. Galant Lady owned by Jim Moran. He owned 3 similar sized yachts at the same time as well as several other sport fishing and pleasure boats. He passed away about a year ago. Made all his money selling Toyota's.

Re: Bill Gates Yacht

When you have that much money you have to spend it somewhere.

Gates Yacht is really kinda modest considering what he could have.

I cna't say I wouldn't get one to given Bills wallet, as it sits finding places for my money to go isn't a problem, 2 in college, one of those getting married, ya,retty well taken care of for now.

Gates is actually a good guy and has given away as much or more than he has personally taken.

Yes, look up "The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation":
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is the largest transparently operated private foundation in the world, founded by Bill and Melinda Gates. The foundation is "driven by the interests and passions of the Gates family". The primary aims of the foundation are, globally, to enhance healthcare and reduce extreme poverty, and in America, to expand educational opportunities and access to information technology.

In business, Bill Gates is not what i would call the most ethical person in the world, but he did revolutionize the way we all do business and his philanthropic efforts are obviously commendable. Don't forget, however, that about 40 billion dollars of the money that he has already received and will recieve in the future (he get some each year), comes from Warren Buffet.

Google Lady Moura. I saw her docked in Monaco last summer and met the Ship Doctor. She has a crew of 55.
