son/daughter of Bill Gates

Did you know that Bill Gates won’t allow his children to have a phone they turn 13 years old?

Have you ever wondered what it feels like to be the son or daughter of the richest man in the world? Bill Gates is Forbes’ number one richest person for the fourth year in a row, and the richest person in the world for 18 out of the past 23 years! This year he has a fortune of $86 billion, up from $75 billion last year.


Currently, Mr. Gates works full-time at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and is the technology adviser to the current CEO of Microsoft, the tech company he co-founded sinces the 70’s. He is also 61-years old now, and he and his wife Melinda have three teenage children! Jennifer Katherine, (21 years old), Rory John (18 years old), and Phoebe Adele (15 years old). So basically there are three millennials out there whose dad is the richest person in the world!

If you’re starting to feel jealous of them, then that’s rightfully so, since they live in a $123 million dollar house, but they’re not as lucky as you thought they were. Bill Gates had announced that when he die, he would donate most of his property. He would only let all his children own a little amount of his property as he believes that his son and daughters don’t need much wealth. He believes that they need to be independent and be able to work out for themselves.

And while you still think that Bill Gate’s children live a Billionaire’s life, that not might be the exact case. Although they live in a house with all the facilities, and parents with a lot of cash,there are still certain rules and restrictions for these rich millennials to follow.


Bill and Melinda are very much conscious about their children, so they do not allow handsome amount of pocket money for their children to carry around. Their children weren’t also allowed to use mobile phones until they were 13 years old.

The Gates believe that since their children are still young, they would teach them how to be humble so they wouldn’t waste their money and be spoiled rich kids that they would inevitably should have.
