I Did Not Even Finish My Studies

Having Kids Has Been A Fantastic Thing For Me. It's Meant That I'm A Little More Balanced. In My Twenties I Worked Massively, Hardly Took Vacation At All. Now, I, With The Help Of My Wife, I'm Always Making Sure I've Got A Good Balance Of How I Spend My Time.

I Don't Believe In Creating Dynastic Wealth. I Don't Really Believe That In A Society That Aspires To Be Meritocratic And That Believes In Equality Of Opportunity - My Kids Have Had Advantage Over 99 Percent Of The Kids In The Country.

Take Agriculture, Where We Haven't Done Much, Or Sanitation; Saying, "okay, We Will Be Able To Make A Really Huge Effort There." It Really Energized The Foundation And Half Of What We've Gotten Done In This Last Decade Is Because Warren [buffett] Trusted Us.

If Somebody Is Considering Being Willing To Go Out And Work In The Field In Global Health, Those Are A Particular Class Of Heroes Because It's Hard To Work In Those Places. Our Foundation Gets So Many Of Our Learnings From People Who've Been Out There And Seen, "this Tool Is Not Going To Work There, There's More Of A Problem Here Than You Know." You Should Really Get Involved In That.

Even For The Diseases We Don't Focus On, Cancer, Heart Disease, You're Going To Be Way Better Off Being Sick 10 Years From Now Than Any Time In The Past.
