By the time Melinda French Gates decided to end her 27-year marriage, her husband was known globally as a software pioneer, a billionaire and a leading philanthropist. But in some circles, Bill Gates had also developed a reputation for questionable conduct in work-related settings. That is attracting new scrutiny amid the breakup of one of the world’s richest, most powerful couples. CORRECTION*

He is a godless wealthy horney man. He is like Bill and Jeffrey and Harvey. All alike. What do you expect anyway? They are not Saints disciples or apostles. They are satanic demonic men. That makes sense to anyone?

He is nearly the richest guy in the whole darned world. There is nothing on the planet so expensive he cant afford to enjoy it. Since the er, reproductive act is the most enjoyable activity in human history, safe bet he would partake often, no matter what the cost.

Does she go by French-Gates? Why? Anyway, one by one, some of the biggies start to fall. I know who I think is behind a lot of this. Thank you.

The Daily Mail is reporting that he had at least one affair and that it got him kicked off the Microsoft board. Also, he was good buddies with Jeffrey Epstein and reportedly told him his marriage to Melinda was toxic!

Ladies, help us guys out here. Even considering the money, would you even think about...?
Of course, knowing our conservative ladies out here, the answer is obvious.

#9, before I became a Christian, working on a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee, where even Teddy [D-Mass] asked to join our committee as we were getting so much press coverage... I could tell he was attracted. He was married, so simply told him to ask the question we put before him ‘for the record’ and walked away.
He later came to a meeting early and sat at my desk and wanted to talk, again I walked away. It wasn’t a hard decision even then.

I find it difficult to believe that Bill Gates is a playboy. He doesn't look like a playboy, he doesn't act like a playboy and he doesn't talk like a playboy. I'm going Occam's Razor here. During Covid he became an intolerable little know it all bore to me, I suspect that it was even worse for his wife. The corporate press makes up all of its stories.

It can not be overstated that Gates hung out with Epstein AFTER he was convicted of sex offenses in 2009. He was offered a sweetheart deal, including felony charges dropped, and one year in jail where he could leave the prison daily.
After he got out, and as a registered sex offender, and in front of everyone, including law enforcement, he went right back to doing what he was doing before. This all happened during the corrupt Obama administration. If Trump had not won in 2016, Epstein would be still running the Lolita express and the unimaginable evil would have continued until this day.
The Netflix special about the island did not tell the whole story, and many consider it controlled disinformation. It's much worse, beyond imagination.

#13, Gates is probably a sociopath just like Bill Clinton and Epstein himself. They are very good at hiding what they truly are and can come across as charming and caring. How many times during the 90’s did we read that women said that Bill Clinton made them feel like they were the only person in the crowded room. He could apparently and literally charm the pants off of half the women in the country.

I tell my husband all the time that being rich does NOT guarantee that a woman will want that man.
When he is 90 and on his death bed... maybe.
An awkward and creepy man is there for all the world to see.

"Bill only met with Epstein to discuss philanthropy". I believe that just like I believe that men and women buy Playboy for the articles.

Many people thought Bill Cosby was the nicest funniest guy alive. Look how that turned out. These reports about the Gatester should be no surprise.

Did you notice that if you add a few letters and take away a few, Bill Gates spells Jeffery Epstein?

Inquiring minds want to know: Was Gates' questionable behavior along the lines of our 42nd President's?

#10, thank you for your input. You said parents are key and I will add that the Bible is too. If a person has neither in their life, it is easy to be deceived especially for females.

For 27 yrs Mrs. Gates knew what was going on, but now suddenly decides she wants a divorce? Not buying it. Too Bill and Hillary Clinton for me. Something else happened or is about to happen and she is getting the heck out of Dodge.

Gates was probably jealous of Bezos escapades. Who will be the next Billionaire to join the club. My money is on Zuckerberg.

#2 is on to something because Ms. Melinda French (formerly Gates) of Texas has also hired estate lawyers to make sure her 3 spawn that we all think came from Bill (maybe not!) get a bigger chunk of the pie than his previously promised "only $10 million each" ... because he didn't want to "spoil" them. Yeah, right. Once Billy-boy is out there all by himself, it's just his money at risk from the lawsuits, not hers or the brats.
ps; #17 As a youngster I read Playboy for the same reason I read National Geographic .... I wanted to see exotic places I'd never get to go!

I think Mrs. Gates started divorce proceedings after Mr. Gates told her he ditched Epstein. Then when she found out he really didn't that's when the you know what hit the fan. And in came the divorce lawyers. Just surmising.
Now Mr. Gates is not a looker, but as Henry Kissinger once said and I'm paraphrasing, power is one great aphrodisiac. And the funniest thing of all, is how they all came after our beloved Donald J. Trump. Trump literally threw Jeffrey out of Mar-a-Lago when the pedophile, Bill and Hillary and Gate's best buddy, came on to one of his staff. Yeah Democrats, let's talk about character.

They say that Gates is a man worth 129 billion dollars and has been living a loveless life, what does that tell you?
The guy could have purchased an obscure South Seas Island and stocked it with beautiful women from all over the world for less money that he proposes to bequeath to his three children, but apparently did not, and instead propositioned Microsoft employees, what does that tell you?
