Well, I'm not really a huge fan of Sir Bill Gates. But I like his perception on things though. Remember, everything will be OK in the end. If its not OK, its not the end.

Here's what that is happening in Uganda, central Africa, while we are enjoying in the comfort of our home at the other end of the world.

Brilliant motivation from Sir Bill Gates.

Chanced upon this on the net and thought I should share. Title is "Nerd wins". Enjoy reading!!

Michael Jordan having "retired," with $40 million in endorsements, makes $178,100 a day, working or not.

If he sleeps 7 hours a night, he makes $52,000 every night while visions of sugarplums dance in his head.

If he goes to see a movie, it'll cost him $7.00, but he'll make $18,550 while he's there.

If he decides to have a 5-minute egg, he'll make $618 while boiling it.

He makes $7,415/hour more than minimum wage.

If he wanted to save up for a new Acura NSX ($90,000) it would take him a whole 12 hours.

If someone were to hand him his salary and endorsement money, they would have to do it at the rate of $200 every second.

He'll probably pay around $200 for a nice round of golf, but will be reimbursed $33,390 for that round.

He'll make about $19.60 while watching the 100-meter dash in the Olympics, and about $15,600 during the Boston Marathon.

This year, he'll make more than twice as much as all U.S. past presidents for all of their terms combined.

Amazing isn't it?

However...

If Jordan saves 100% of his income for the next 500 years, he'll still have less than Bill Gates has at this very moment.

Game over. Nerd wins.

Happy lunar new year people!!

Here's a video I took on Chinese new year eve, illuminating the sky with fireworks display  at JB (Johor Bahru, Malaysia). May the year of Dragon be a happy and prosperous year for all!!
