The book "Bill Gates" primarily introduces the rise of the great leader of the American Microsoft empire, the world's wealthiest computer genius, Bill Gates, as well as relevant information about Gates. At the age of 7, Bill Gates fantasized about creating a magic box no bigger than a cigarette box that could hold a large encyclopedia. In the 6th grade, Bill Gates had his first contact with computers and became obsessed with them. In the 8th grade, Gates wrote his first software program. In 1971, Gates co-founded his own company, "Traffic Data Company," with Allen. In July 1975, Bill Gates dropped out of school halfway through and officially founded Microsoft in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In 1966, he became the youngest person in history to become a world billionaire. By the end of the 20th century, if Bill Gates were a country, he would be the 37th richest country in the world, and if he were a company, he would be the 13th largest company in the U.S., even surpassing IBM. He had already earned the most money in the world—what else was there for him to pursue or explore? There was—and that was spending money!
