Bill Gates, the man who has more money than some developed nations, is being knighted. Yes, knighted.
It won’t be “Sir” Bill, though, because you’ve got to be a British citizen to hold that distinction (Editor’s question: So how long will it be before he buys dual citizenship?). He’ll be Bill Gates KBE or Knight Commander of the British Empire. (Empire? I knew it!)
Amazing what a little $210 million donation to Cambridge University will do. Better than fish and chips!
Hey Duke! He only gave you $20 million.
