Hi everybody, I will tell you about someone in the picture above. He is William Henry “Bill” Gates III or Bill Gates. He is an intrepreneur, an author, an investor, and also a philantrophical from USA. He was born in Seattle, Washington on October 28th, 1955. His parents are William H. Gates and Mary Maxwell Gates. He is the second child in his family and he has two siblings. His wife is Melinda French. And now, he has three children. They are Jennifer Kathrine Gates, Rory John Gates, and Phoebe Adele Gates.

I have known him since I was in junior high school. My teacher told me about him when we were learning about Microsoft Word. Since then, I have known that the creator of Microsoft is Bill Gates. Microsoft is the biggest software corporation in the world.

Everybody arround him knew that his skill in computering had been confessed since he studied in Lakeside. In 1968, Bill Gates was introduced with computer for the first time. He spent his time to make some programs and learn a lot about computer with his friends in Lakeside, include his bestfriend, Paul Allen. In 1973, Bill Gates continued his study in Harvard University majoring in law as his father's wishes, but not long after that he turned again to computer engineering in accordance with his interests. In his early career, Bill Gates dropped out from Harvard University. Since then, he cooperated with Paul Allen in MITS (Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems) and they created “Micro-soft”. In 1976, the name was changed to "Microsoft" and it was registered in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Mexico as a trade name. 

Bill Gates continued to develop Microsoft with Allen although they faced many obstacles. They collaborated with several companies after they didn’t cooperate anymore with MITS. Their presistence to develop Microsoft has made it becomes the biggest software corporation in the world. It has been used by many people in the world and it has produced a wide range of products.The wealth generated by Microsoft made him to be the richest man in the world from 1995 to 2007. 

For your information, Bill Gates also has a social foundation. It is called Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation which is being the biggest transparency foundation in the world.Well, I think that's all about Bill Gates. Thank you.
