So, how much is Bill Gates worth? Enough to never worry about the price of pasta sauce. Enough to make your head spin with zeroes. But also enough to remind us that money, after a certain point, stops being about buying things and becomes a weird, abstract concept that mostly exists as numbers on a screen. So next time you’re debating between the $2.99 sauce and the $8.99 one, just remember: Bill Gates has already bought the entire factory, the grocery store chain, and probably the cows that made the tomatoes. And he still can’t finish his pasta without getting distracted by a book on vaccine distribution.
Now go ahead and buy the fancy sauce. You’re not Bill Gates, but at least you get to enjoy dinner.
