If you read Melinda Gates bio, you will find that she caught Bill Gates eye at a trade fair in 1987. That was also the year she graduated. She was promptly hired at Microsoft and made a manager of multi-media products, a very high profile position for someone fresh out of college with no work experience. Prior to being hired at Microsoft she had not done anything of significance other than her impressive academic career. She married Bill Gates in 1994. They are now divorcing 27 years later.
So here is the 64 BILLION DOLLAR question: How much do you believe Melinda Gates should receive in the divorce settlement and why?
I believe she should receive no more than $1 billion from the Gates fortune because she did nothing to significantly build or add to it. That is a staggering sum of money but it represents a very small percentage of the estate which is all I believe she is entitled to.
