Bill Gates and His Quest to Shape Our World

This book covers Bill Gates in his later years. Seems like he had been cheating on his wife Melinda. She divorced him. They previously had created a massive organization to oversee the funds they marked for charity. Eventually, his wife quit and formed her own org when they divorced.

There was coverage of a suspicious relationship between Bill and Jeffrey Epstein. It seems the people at his companies charged with keeping his image clean had slept on the job. The PR campaign to absolve Gates was him stating that bad choices were made. Deny anything without proof. And back pedal when they present the proof.

Warren Buffet used to be a close friend of Bill. Buffer promised the most of his wealth to Bill's charity organization. It seems the relationship has cooled quite a bit. This book felt like a scholarly academic paper. Lots of quotes from other people and other works. Not a fun book to read, especially compared to Bill's autobiography Source Code.
