will Melinda get to keep Clippy?

reply

Is she as nutty as Bill?

reply

Well, this one really came out of nowhere.

Anyone see the clip of them on John Oliver last night? They definitely looked awkward together.

i would rather shoot my left ballsack with a .22 than watch john oliver

Just so weird since they don't look like the type to divorce. Maybe the wife is doing this so she doesn't have to divulge most of the wealth when they retire. They said they were going to give out 90%+ of their wealth away the pledge on philanthropy or some shit like that.

Bill gates owns the largest farmland to date btw and is buying them all up.

reply

well , they probably have given away more money than anyone in the history of mankind,
so id say theyve done their bit even if its not 90%

reply

lol
You are an obvious shill.

Watch the video and learn what philanthropy is all about and why the so-called philanthropists keep getting richer despite 'trying to give it all away'.

reply

well , one of the comments sums up what i assume the video is about:

Billionaire Guy: “I’m going to give away HALF of my money to charity!!!! A Charity called “”Billionaire-Guy’s Wold Charity”” set up by me, and I’ll decide how the money is spent!!!
Also, that half of my wealth that’s now in the charity that I set up, and decide how I use the money......you can’t tax it anymore........cause it’s in a “Charity”.


And yes , I have no doubt most millionaires and billionaires do everything they csan to preserve wealth , tax scams , offshore accounts , calling stuff a charity" like in that comment...

Then you get Bill Gates , who genuinely gives billions to real poverty, makes a real difference in the world.
Eradictes smallpox in Africa for gods sake ...

...and your like:
"yeah its all a scam he's just lining his pockets ... its obvious cos he's still rich"

Bill Gates is one of the main actors in that video - watch and learn.
I imagine you get your news from the corporate media - where Bill Gates is widely accepted as being an expert in farming, medicine, computer technology, climate change, etc.

Please know that by far and large, billionaires tend to stick together. Please understand that mainstream media is now owned by a few individuals who are in that billionaire club. Stop eating up what they feed you. Apply logic and common sense to the publically known information. You do not double or triple your wealth while 'trying to give it all away', unless your attempts to give it all away were never earnest to begin with.

I suspect we are not just dealing with tax evasion - billionaires have enough money not to have to worry about that. We are dealing with fear - fear of revolution - fear of uprising of the masses against the uber rich. If you control the flow of information and news, you can control the mindsets of the sheep. More importantly, if you promise to give it all away, it minimizes the risk of an uprising by a big margin - that is the main purpose of the 'pledge'.

>”If you control the flow of information and news, you can control the mindsets of the sheep.”

Despite the supposed ability to control the flow of information, Bill has been unable to persuade the public to behave or believe as he would wish. How is that?

reply

That's because not everyone is a sheep -
most people are sheep, but not all

reply

Bill controls the flow of information and most people are sheep, and yet, Bill has been unable to persuade Americans to follow his advice on climate change, pandemic preparation and much else and is unloved. Doesn’t follow.

Coal mines are being closed in record numbers in the States these days.
People in many states/countries are still double masking.
Vaccine recipe is still not shared worldwide to stop the plague.


One thing is true - Bill's divorce is not being reported in a positive light these days - in fact, I see a lot of negative coverage of the Bill's past. I'm starting to think there's been some sort of falling out in the billionaire club - Bill is no longer protected or endorsed, ever since the divorce filings came out.

reply

What do conspiracy nutjobs on social media blame this on?

reply

good for bill now he can finally get some hot new strange, that melinda looks like a dude in the wig no richest man in the world should have to be married to that. loosing half your wealth is just a small price to pay for the life upgrade bill is about to get

reply

Apparently you missed the part where SHE filed for divorce from Bill. It also seems like it was very strange arrangement to begin with, their is a story out where Bill had gone on a one week vacation each year with his first girlfriend even after he got married to the current wife... and no, she isn't a step up from the one he married, she's uglier and 5 years older than Bill compared to the current wife that is 10 years younger than Bill. So basically Bill is one weird motherfucker... if you have that much money and want to fuck around on your wife at least have the decency to fuck around with hotter women not even uglier older ones that look like your mother.

reply

yeah bill is one sad little nerd isnt he. no amount of money in this world can make you a man when your testosterone levels are so naturally low

reply

Well, he went to Epstein's island for a proper release.

Some couples were not good for each other, but never noticed because they were always traveling, separately. But the virus kind of shut that down and when they were forced to live together and confront each other they were also forced to admit the truth. I don't know if it happened in this case, but it has in some. And it's an embarrassing reason for people who are supposed to be smart about things, because it begs the question of why they weren't smart enough to choose the right person to marry.
