5.+Bill+Gates

By: Justine Chavez Bill Gates is trying to create an easier world for everyone to succeed. Bill created Microsoft and Apple products but his main job was to create a successful future generation. According to Bio. com, “ Over the next few years, his involvement with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation occupied much of his time and even more of his interest. In 2006, Gates announced he was transitioning himself from full-time work at Microsoft, to devote more quality time to the Foundation ” (27). Bill focused on developing Microsoft to the best ability but realized it was not about the money but about being a role model. Younger generation look up to Bill as a role model because he overcame many obstacles to become successful. It seems like Gates understand the struggles students are facing today. It’s very difficult to get through college if one doesn’t have support throughout the four years. Gates realized his ideas weren’t being put to test, so he step down from his job to start a new career focusing on his goals. Bill did the unimaginable task in order to get to the place Bill wanted today. Bill Gates is focusing on students, innovation and technology instead of making enough money to live on.

Bill Gates has affected many Americans in the world today. Not only did Bill Gates created Microsoft and Apple products but he is giving up his money to fund younger generations to make a difference in the world. According to the Bill & Melinda Foundation, “Our organization is developed the Gates Millennium Scholars by giving $1 billion to help 20,000 young people afford college over the next two decades” (19). Gates was just a 13 year old boy when he found out what he wanted to do in life. Bill is encouraging individuals to figure out what career each individual should obtain. If a young man can drop out of college and be the richest man on earth then anyone from any background can be as successful as him. Bill is teachings others “Don’t spend your life focusing on others people brilliant idea because ideas are worthless until they are executed” (Founder and Founders 9). Life is not about being successful but figuring out what ideas make an individual happy. Happiness is making change by oneself with others to help along the way not others being in charge of what decision you make. Bill proclaims, “To turn caring into action, we need to see a problem, find a solution and deliver impact” (3). There is no change if no first sees a problem in order to put the change into action. The more knowledge oneself obtains the stronger the passion will develop inside one's heart.

Bill Gates is very successful technologist who invented the greatest computer program today. Bill changed the history of the computer with his development of Microsoft. According to Bill Gates, “Their vision of a computer on every desktop and in every home” seemed farfetched to most people. Today, thanks to Microsoft and many other companies, that vision is a reality in many parts of the world, and personal technology is an integral part of society.” (7). Everyone in the world has a computer with Microsoft Word installed in order to write papers. It was an easier and faster way to type a book rather than on a type writer. Gates has changed lots of people lives from being difficult to simple. Today, Microsoft is taking over the world with all the new invention coming out every year. Society is running on new Microsoft technology to make everything at a touch of a button. Anything one person needs can be easily accessed to by a phone with everything one person could want.

Bill Gates is not just an inventor who changed his life but who is helping the world change their lives. According to Bill & Melinda Foundation, “Our Global Health Division aims to harness advances in science and technology to save lives in developing countries. Our United States Division works to improve U.S. high school and postsecondary education and support vulnerable children and families in Washington State” (1). Bill is not trying to make money for himself but he had a vision to better the world. With his inventions of phones and computers, he is giving schools the technology to give the student the best chance at success. Today, there is more schools teaching on powerpoints, computer and projectors because younger generations are adapting to learn from technology rather than humans. The Gates family is teaching the world everyone is equal no matter where an individual grew up, how they were raised and race for their family. Everyone deserves an equal chance to improve the quality of life. Melinda Gates sums up, “Whatever the conditions of people’s lives, wherever they live, however the live, we all share the same dreams” (1).
