"I almost never heard my dad talk about how Microsoft was founded. He always preferred to talk about the work of the foundation. I remember when I mentioned to him that I wanted to start a company, his reaction was: 'Are you sure you really want to do this?'"
This also triggered a heated discussion among netizens. Some people said bluntly: "Look at it this way, don't be poisoned by the chicken soup article about Gates dropping out of school to start Microsoft. He himself didn't ask his daughter to do this. Why should everyone follow suit? What's more, the world is no longer the same as it used to be."
In early 1977, Microsoft's business expanded rapidly, and the four rented rooms could no longer accommodate the company. They decided to move and chose a room on the eighth floor of the Double Circle Central Building in Albuquerque as the company's new location. At this time, Bill Gates formally dropped out of Harvard.
"If you stay on campus for one more day, you will have more regrets; if you stay on campus for one more day, you will lose one opportunity." This was Bill Gates' most sincere feeling at the time.
Of course, we all know what happened later. Microsoft was a great success. Bill Gates became the world's richest man according to Forbes for 13 consecutive years from 1995 to 2007, and the richest man in the United States according to Forbes for 20 consecutive years.
