Back when I started getting an interest in tech back in middle school I looked up to Bill Gates
In high school I used to think highly of Elon because of all the promises he was making with Tesla, space X, etc
I think it’s safe to say those opinions aged like milk
Bill Gates is probably the only one on the list I have a positive bias for cuz he's spent sooooooo much money buying goodwill.
He owns Goodwill?! That probably explains why their prices have become exorbitant, no longer thrifty. And all the best donated items aren't even available for in-store customers to buy. The best items get set aside to be posted to eBay for maximum profiteering.
You serious rn? I'm talking about the Melinda Gates foundation and I'm using the meaning of "good will" that Good Will based their name on fyi
