The following is a cut and paste out of Forbes.com
The titans of technology make more than any producer, director or diva in Hollywood. Microsoft (nasdaq: MSFT - news - people ) founder Bill Gates is, of course, the richest man in world, with a net worth of $50 billion. If he makes a 7% return on investment, which is the average amount the stock market appreciates each year, he earns $6,659 per minute. That's enough to buy about 16 shares of Google's (nasdaq: GOOG - news - people ) stock, which might be a smart investment considering Microsoft's shares are languishing below $24.
Not bad pay is it.:dontknow:
