Elon Musk

Elon Musk is the richest person in the world, but people say Jeff Bezos is the richest person in the world,

Elon Musk has been trying to buy twitter. Elon has 8 kids his first kid Nevada died of sudden death infant syndrome.

Elon Musk is the founder of Tesla Motor company. He built electric cars. Yes, the things they are made of are bad for the earth.

But they are also good because they do not have gasoline. And I chose Elon musk, because I could not think of anybody else.

Also, his Net Worth is 264.6 billion dollars (about $810 per person in the US). He was born on June 28, 1971, in South Africa. He also sold almost 11 million dollars to Google for Tesla. I chose Elon Musk because he was not born in a rich family and his job was as a logger and he is still alive.

Nikola Tesla

By Jesse
Nikola Tesla is one of the most important inventors in the world. His inventions are used in our electric systems, radios, and hydroelectricity. It would not be like what it is like today without him

Nikola was born in Croatia in 1856. He grew up on a farm and first noticed electricity when he pet his cat and got shocked. His mom invented things around the house. He was a curious child. Nikola also liked inventing things. In college he studied electrical engineering. He left college without a degree after his father died.

Nikola moved to New York to work with Thomas Edison, but they did not get along. It took Nikola 7 years to invent an electric motor with an alternating current (A.C.) instead of a direct current (D.C.). Once he invented it, there was a debate about whether A.C. or D.C. was better. Nikola worked with Westinghouse to show that A.C. was better because it could transmit electricity farther. Nikola’s final inventions include the first hydro powerplant on Niagara Falls and the first wireless radio communication.

Nikola died poor after giving his invention rights to Westinghouse. He died in New York city in 1943.

It is cool that he made inventions that changed the world. Even though he died poor, he now has a car named after him so maybe his work will be appreciated.

Bill Gates

By: Brett 

Bill Gates is an amazing person. He is most known for being the co-founder of Microsoft but has done so much more than that. I loved researching him and I learned so much. Bill Gates was born on October 28, 1955 in Seattle, Washington. His full name is William Henry Gates, III.  

Bill’s parents are named William H. Gates, Sr. and Mary Maxwell Gates. His mom died in 1994. He is the middle child. His older sister’s name is Kristi and his younger sister’s name is Libby. As a child, he was small for his age and was bullied. His family was very competitive, and there was always a reward for winning.  

In school, he was often excused from class to program computers. Bill and his friends would get in trouble for finding bugs in programs and using that for free computer time. Bill and his friend Kent Evans started helping their school with programming. Kent was Bill’s best friend. When they were Juniors, Kent died in a mountain climbing accident. Bill said it was the saddest day of his life.  

For college, Bill went to Harvard. He dropped out after two years and started his first computer software company in 1975 with his friend, Paul Allen. This company become Microsoft. Microsoft started working with IBM for a little while but that fell apart. In 1985, Microsoft released Windows for people to purchase. Bill was very involved in Microsoft until 2006. He left to spend more time helping people and to create charities.  

Bill married his wife, Melinda French in Hawaii on January 1, 1994. They have three children and live in Washington. Bill Gates net worth is currently $99.5 billion. He once said that he does not like being one of the richest people because he does not like the attention it brings. 

In 2000, Bill and his wife created the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The foundation helps provide money for global development and health issues. He and his wife also donate to other charities and organizations and in 2007 were reported to be the second-most generous people. They had given over $28 billion to charity and they said they will eventually donate 95% of their wealth.  

Bill Gates seems like a very nice man. He is smart and generous. I had a lot of fun learning about him and everything he did to help create computers as we know them today. I hope you learned something about him as well.
