Being one of the worlds richest men...

Bill Gates sure doesn't look the part.

The guy is minted. Can't he hire some fashion designer or style guru to make him look the part too, especially when it comes to public speaking.

What I'm really saying is he looks the same ALWAYS and wears the same clothes ALWAYS.

I wanna see Bill dressed in a pinstipe suit or something, a high collar suit would be cool.

I'm not complaining or anything, it's up to him how he dresses, but I only really noticed this today while staring admirably into his eyes.

The thing I love about the software industry, is no one cares how you dress. Maybe that comes into it.

If I were the CEO of a big company, and I thought I could get away with it, I'd be dressing just as I do now.

I mean, I go to work now, dressed like I do normally, and no one cares. My work mates might jokingy take the piss on a night out occasionally, but that's cool, and I don't think anyone thinks I'm any less professional for the way I dress.

yeah i guess you are right. I think i could go wearing the same jeans and top for a week at work and no one would really care. The reason why I brought Bill into this is because he's always in the media spotlight. I suppose though when you are worth $40 billion or so you dont really give a shit lol.

Yeah, I doubt I'd change what i wear either.

I was at a networking event last Tuesday and everyone was in suits apart from me. I had on a workshirt, baggy jeans and camouflage Nike Hi-tops.

Was pretty funny. Everyone guessed before I spoke to them that I was a designer!

People don't really care I reckon. As long as you produce the goods who cares what you wear

If Bill Gates was to dress in a Black Silk Suit and wear black eye liner, dye his hair balck and possibly get tatoos on his neck i would be terrified...
It would be like the coming curse of the antichrist or something!!!

It's not as if that's really Bill Gates anyway, that's just the actor he hires to play him in public!
