盖茨净资产达到900亿美元，创历史最高记录 - 盖茨 - IT资讯
彭博社数据显示，微软联合创始人比尔·盖茨(Bill Gates)的净资产于上周五达到900亿美元，创下历史最高记录。
据悉，盖茨净资产的增长主要得益于其所持几家上市公司股票的强劲表现，如加拿大国家铁路公司(Canadian National Railway Company)，以及水处理、清洁、食品安全及虫害控制产品制造商Ecolab。
其中，加拿大国家铁路公司也是盖茨最爱的三只股票之一，另外两只是“股神”巴菲特的伯克希尔·哈撒韦公司和美国废物管理公司Waste Management。
彭博社数据显示，继盖茨之后，排在全球第二位的富豪是西班牙零售巨头阿曼西奥·奥特加(Amancio Ortega)，其净资产较盖茨少了135亿美元。
1994年至1999年间，正值微软股票如日中天之际。当时，盖茨的净资产曾接近900亿美元。后来，微软在股票市场表现平平，盖茨也开始向比尔和梅琳达·盖茨基金会(Bill &Melinda Gates Foundation)捐款，导致个人资产减少。
据《福布斯》杂志去年9月发布的美国富豪榜显示，盖茨连续22年位居榜首，当时的个人净资产为760亿美元。
基于900亿美元的个人资产，当前盖茨的身价相当于美国GDP的0.5%。
