Bill Gates could have $1.2–1.5 trillion (!) and be the richest person in the world right now — if he hadn't listened to his friend, Warren Buffett.

In 2014, Buffett advised Gates to sell Microsoft shares: "don't put all your eggs in one basket."

Bill diversified his money into different assets, leaving Microsoft just a small part of his portfolio.

It's a pity for Bill Gates with his $117 billion, but not from the bottom of my heart 😁
