Bill Gates | Leonardo da Vinci’s Journal

 Bill Gates is known as one the richest men in the world. He has an estimated net worth of $129 billion. He is the co-founder of Microsoft Corporation. He became the chief executive officer, president, and chief software architect of the said prestigious company. Because of all of his achievements, wealth, and investments, it’s reasonable for people to assume that the man is full of himself, but unlike most wealthy man, Gates is quiet and humble.

Right before Bill became the richest lad in the world, he purchased Leonardo da Vinci’s Codex Leicester for $30.8 million in 1994. It was tagged as the most expensive book sold on record at the time. Da Vinci’s journal is a 72-page document that contains his writings and drawings about Mathematics, Botany, and more. The inspiring written work was made between 1506 and 1510. It seems that Da Vinci’s notebook helped Bill to be the best version of himself.
