比尔盖茨回忆起他与妻子的“自发”第一次约会

根据福布斯的说法,比尔盖茨是世界上第二大富豪,也是第四大富豪,但有一段时间,他只是一个男孩在办公室停车场问一个女孩.

“他第一次问我,他说,’你可以在这个星期六的两个星期后出去吗?’”他的妻子Melinda Gates在最近的NPR采访中说道。 “而且我说,’嗯,这不是完全自发的……我想,哇,谁知道他们的日历从周六晚上两周?’”

梅琳达曾在微软工作过,而盖茨曾经是并且仍然是首席执行官。我们向盖茨询问了他的故事.

梅琳达“随后说道,’嘿,离现在太远了,叫我离日期更近。’然后我晚些时候打电话给她说,’今晚很晚才聚在一起怎么样?’盖茨告诉TODAY.com “她说,’好吧,是的,这是自发的。’”

尽管他的财富丰富,但在第一次约会时却没有喝酒和用餐.

“我当时正在进行一次计算机用户小组会议,所以我们的第一次约会当晚很晚,”他说。 “已经够晚了,我不确定那时候开放的是什么。所以我们坐在家里聊天。“

结婚十九年,后来三个孩子,这对夫妇正在做正确的事情. 

“我们一起读了很多相同的书并谈论这个,”他谈到保持火花活着。 “你必须投入精力确保你知道对方的想法。你可以阅读谈论关系的书籍,看看你们每个人是如何思考问题的。“

忙碌的夫妇为彼此和他们的孩子留出时间,除了他们一起共同旅行为他们的基金会.

今天盖茨出席了他的基金会的工作,通过这项工作,他已经放弃了48%的净资产,以及他计划在未来六年内根除小儿麻痹症。他还与TODAY.com谈论了该基金会的最新努力,即2030年的“我的希望”活动,该活动正在向公众征求他们希望到2030年他们希望在世界上看到的变化。.

一些提交材料将在盖茨的年度信函中公布,并可能告知未来资源的去向.

他说:“如果你看一下正在发生的政治僵局或预算危机,就会有一点容易忽视事情的进展。” “因此,无论是帮助穷人,根除疾病,还是我们如何利用科技,让教育变得更有趣,这是一个梦想,让年轻人谈论这些事情,参与并真正意识到这种可能性是很好的。现在不是对话的主要部分。“

    According to Forbes, Bill Gates is the second richest person in the world and the fourth richest person. But at one point, he was just a boy asking a girl out in the office parking lot. “He asked me for the first time, he said, Can you go out in two weeks on this Saturday?” his wife Melinda Gates said in a recent NPR interview. “And I said, Well, thats not entirely spontaneous…I mean, who knows what their calendar looks like two weeks from Saturday night?” Melinda had worked at Microsoft, where Gates was and still is the CEO. We asked Gates about his side of the story. “And she said, Hey, thats too far out, call me closer to the date. And then later on, I called her and said, How about tonight? Gates told TODAY.com. “And she said, Well, thats more spontaneous. Despite his wealth, there was no drinking or dining on their first date. “I was doing some computer user group thing that night, so we were able to go out,” he said. “We had a nice conversation and it was a great chance to get to know each other.” Nineteen years of marriage and three children later, the couple is doing something right. “We read a lot of the same books and talk about them,” he said of keeping the spark alive. “You have to put energy into making sure you know the other persons thoughts about things. You can read books about relationships and talk about how each of you thinks about things.” The busy couple makes time for each other and their children, as well as traveling together for their foundation. Today, Gates is attending to his foundations work, through which he has pledged to give away 48% of his net worth and plans to eradicate polio in the next six years. He also spoke with TODAY.com about the foundations latest effort, the “My Hope for 2030” campaign, which is asking the public what changes they hope to see in the world by 2030. Some submissions will be featured in Gates annual letter and may inform future resource allocation. “If you look at the political gridlock or budget crises that are going on, its easy to lose sight of progress thats happening,” he said
