Bill Gates
Bill Gates is an American technology entrepreneur who cofounded Microsoft and became one of the world's wealthiest people.
His name often serves as shorthand for extreme wealth or tech-industry success: Who do you think I am, Bill Gates?
Later known for philanthropy through the Gates Foundation, he appears in discussions of global health, education, and—to conspiracy theorists—vaccine programs and population control.
