Bill Gates' Fortune

How much of his money is in stocks and how much does he have access to in banks and such?? Just wondering

As of April 30, Gates held 701,749,300 shares of MSFT, which represents a lion’s share of his net worth, $48 billion as of May 16. He probably has a few billion in other assets.

That will also show you his recent sales of MSFT. Has has dumped $300 million at a crack a couple times.

Whoops! I screwed up. I guess I’m not ready for the big leagues yet. :o

Since yabob kindly reposted his comment in the other thread, I’ll close this one too.
