It always bothers me when those who worship someone for his wealth dismiss those who dislike that same someone for his actions simply as a matter of envy.

- foota 11y agoI would argue that many people are envious of his ability to succeed rather than his wealth.
- kaoD 11y agoI'm envious, but in a good way. I think there are good things to take from him, even from his so-called evilness. I'd like to be a bit more like him in many ways. On the other hand, his business choices still frustrate me as an engineer, but I understand we just had opposing goals. I don't agree with a lot of what he and his company did. Disregarding opinions as envy is more often than not a case of not putting yourself in other's shoes. Oversimplification is always wrong.
- WalterBright 11y agoI gave reasons and even a book reference. It really is a good read and worth while.
- Crito 11y ago> This book says that you are envious. No.
- forgetsusername 11y agoRight, don't ever read anything you might disagree with.
- Crito 11y agoNo book can demonstrate that the reason he dislikes Bill Gates is envy. The authoritative source for that information is in his skull, not in a book written by somebody who never even met him.
