Bill Gates Conspiracy
"I told you so"
I told my wife when I let her read a column of Michael Tan and emphasized on the part about a study that a poor American family improving economically to middle class will take about 200 years!
And they’re even Americans! ( I hate to be redundant)
I was right when I told her not long ago how inconcievable - basically, from my own experience - it is to acquire wealth, much less to become a billionaire in a lifetime.
So fast was how these self-made billionaires amassed their wealth that they still have at least 3/4 of their lives to enjoy their riches.
While all I see around me are bootom-feeders and crumbs that begin to look like gold dusts, wealth’s elusiveness only confirm the idea that it is just a mirage, especially when rich men are distant and fictitious like Jose Pidal and Jose Velarde.
That is how I was led to believe that there is no such person as Bill Gates, only balikbayans.
I came to my senses as I closed my mouth (to prevent more drooling) and finally decided that that was it for me and Forbes.com
