Mike, all you're doing is showing how naive you are. Bill Gates DID NOT work hard for his money. He was in the right place, at the right time with the right idea. In fact he wasn't the only one with the same idea and in fact he bought it from someone else (who got $50K). The Judeo-Christian work ethic is just programming to create wage slaves. Get over it.
