    US Currency does not belong to you, it is the property of the federal govt. you're not supposed to burn it or throw it away or anything. Not sure but I doubt its ever been enforced.

    This is when those who stay on TOP is POOR. They are racing to be the World's Richest Man. Why? It is just a stupid list created by human being.

    Why not giving all of these BIG BUCKS to the charity, and help the poor people. Why do you have to be the world's richest? Why do you need 50 billion dollars in a bank?

    Honestly, if I dropped down from being the world's richest man to the world's third richest man, I wouldn't be upset. He does a lot of philanthropy stuff as well so it's not like he's hoarding his wealth either.

    This is dumb. It is perfectly legal to use a one dollar or bills as toilet paper. It's true you can't flush, but if you are rich enough, I am sure you can have a paid servant wash and dry your toilet paper.

    I bet Billy would be very upset right now. He doesn't need any of those paper money, fame is what he seeks.

    Yep.. that is what I like about Bill. In business, he is very tough and called sorts of names but business is just business to him. Sadly he is always negatively for his business roles and undermentioned for his awesome charity contribution.

    He and Warren will be laughing out this whole Richest man list ove a game of bridge:D

    Bill Gates is very generous. He does a lot of charity and does not give huge publicity to his charity - he does charity with good intentions.

    The Richest one is the Warren Buffett (Berkshire Hathaway inc.) followed by Carlos Slim(mexican Telecom mogul) and then Mr. Gates, most of the richest peoples are from the developing nations Like India , China and other Asian countires.
