I can't think of a reason why the richest and one of the smartest men in the world would go through all that trouble just for petty "image management" (he has nothing to prove to you in terms of intellect, we all know already he's super smart. Why would he try to brag about reading lots of books? That's for losers who just want to appear "as though" they are smart) More importantly, I don't see any reason why he woudln't read these books. I've read a lot of them and learned a lot from them. Why wouldn't he want to read these?

He and his charities are in constant contact with various governments. He does appearances with world leaders regularly. His public image is what allows him to do things that others with similar means cannot. (Having a great public image and being invited to everything is also just plain fun.)
- volaski 11y agoMaybe you think everyone tries to look smart by pretending to read lots of books, but most smart people read books just because they want to learn. If you don't understand this I guess it can't be helped.
