How Can I Email Bill Gates? What is Bill Gates's Email Address?

Saturday May 30, 2009
Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer arm in arm — I can see it clearly — arm in arm singing — I can hear it vividly — singing The Impossible Dream.
I can see and hear it because that's what the two did to celebrate shipping Windows 1.0. Bill Gates will go on to joke about Steve coming up with a single letter change to the product name that would allow them to cut features and ship earlier. It's well worth a watchin'.
At that time, of course, Bill Gates already had his Microsoft email address. So, maybe, in addition to sitting in meetings brooding over features to skip, they exchanged emails ruminating features to cancel.
Today, you can email Bill Gates at this address, too:

KAYO MARBILUS MYSPACE BLOGS myspace.com/kayomarbilus William Henry “Bill” Gates III (born October 28, 1955)[2] is an American business magnate, philanthropist, author, and chairman[3] of Microsoft, the software company he founded with Paul Allen. He is ranked consistently one of the world’s wealthiest people[4] and the wealthiest overall as of 2009.[1] During his career at Microsoft, Gates held the positions of CEO and chief software architect, and remains the largest individual shareholder with more than 8 percent of the common stock.[5] He has also authored or co-authored several books.
Gates is one of the best-known entrepreneurs of the personal computer revolution. Although he is admired by many, a number of industry insiders criticize his business tactics, which they consider anti-competitive, an opinion which has in some cases been upheld by the courts.[6][7] In the later stages of his career, Gates has pursued a number of philanthropic endeavors, donating large amounts of money to various charitable organizations and scientific research programs through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, established in 2000.
Bill Gates stepped down as chief executive officer of Microsoft in January, 2000. He remained as chairman and created the position of chief software architect. In June, 2006, Gates announced that he would be transitioning from full-time work at Microsoft to part-time work and full-time work at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. He gradually transferred his duties to Ray Ozzie, chief software architect and Craig Mundie, chief research and strategy officer. Gates’ last full-time day at Microsoft was June 27, 2008. He remains at Microsoft as non-executive chairman.

Peace! Good morning sir Bill Gates. Praise God for a blessed person like you who shares his wealth to the poor. Sir I am a government employee here in the philippines with three (3) children who are blessed with intellect. My net take home pay every 15th is only two thousand seven hundred pesos left due to so many debts. I know that you know so well the system in the Philippines is. Though my eldest is already a registered nurse, but he is working in a call center to support himself. He is not helping us financially coz his earnings is enough for himself. I am mailing you this because I want to ask help from you because my husband has no work. I hope you won’t fail me with this request. My second child who is taking up IT at AMA here in Dumaguete City loves computer course very much but the problem is we could not support him anymore. I am afraid that he could not finish this semester. The very reason why we are into deep debt is because, CAP which is where I invested a pre-need educational plan for my children are embezzled. Since CAP stops supporting us, I resorted to debts so that I could send my children to school. I really want my children to finish school because this is the only legacy I could hand them. Sir, please help me support my children much more my second child who loves computer course. I pity him so much because he really wants to finish school but we can’t afford alread. I also want to ask a laptop for him. This child of mine has the the gift of art and who loves animation and web-page designing. Please help me also that my nurse son will be hired in America. I also has the youngest which is 5 years old. Sir, I really need your help. PLEASE DON’T FAIL ME. GOD BLESS. – LUCILA CORNITO BERGADO OF KATRINA HOMES 1, BATINGUEL, DUMAGUETE CITY, PHILIPPINES.

Sir, Ma’am,

I wont lie. This is probably considered SPAM mail. I will ask you strait up.
Can you donate a few dollars to me? I am stuck in a bind. I am in he United States Army
in Iraq at the moment. This is my 4th time here. I serve The US proudly.

I have not been able to keep more than a hundred dollars in
my account ever. I get paid, then spend it on Bills. I maxed out my credit cards
to move my wife and two kids to Germany. I am stationed there. The Army normally
pays for moving, but, well, it is a long story on why they are not. I am going
home from Iraq in the end of November. I have no money saved up to take my family
anywhere. Its not as bad as it seems, but I am just tired of living pay check to
paycheck without doing anything for my kids at lease. So if you can, please help
me out.

If you can, please. Just reply to my email adress and I could send you my adress.

I will also be more than happy to send you another email detailing everything.

Thank you
John

I can only guess at how many nice things you do for people on a daily basis.

My son’s school is already looking for ways to buy gifts for the kids in the school. They are 40 kids in the school. Before I start asking for anything, let me explain the situation. The board of the school refuses to let them do any fundraising at all. What really hurts is knowing that some of these kids don’t get nothing on Christmas Morning. It breaks my heart, not being able to help them. Then the idea ask for donations. The one person that would have that kind of generosity to help that many kids(40) would be you.

Any and all donations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read
this.
Thanks
A Mommy

I just want an XBOX 360 that works. I want to be treated with respect by your support line operators. My first 360 crapped out about 2 years ago with an E74 code. I was told that my console was out of warranty after 90 days. So I opted out of sending $99.99 to get it fixed and just bought another one…..and now my 2nd console just crapped out. Then today, I read that the warranty for my 1st console was extended. So I called the cust. support line and they tell me that the extended warranty for my console ended 5 months ago! Why was I not contacted! They had all my info on file -email, address, phone , but they stated that they had no record of my 2 calls to complain about that console. They stated they needed a reference # for the original complaint. WTF- WHO KEEPS REFERENCE #’S AFTER 2 YEARS!!!! They have all my personal info on file but they state that I have no proof of my original complaints! I want some justice!!!!

An appeal, Mr. Bill Gates. Please help Efren Penaflorida of the Philippines. He has a rolling pushcart school for the poor in my country. Is it possible, sir, for you to help them? If you & your foundation can provide these little Filipino Angels those small computer toys (notebook-size $100 a piece) will greatly help them. Thank you sir. Jimmy Hernandez from Montreal, Quebec.

Dear sir Bill gates

I am 19 years of age from Namibia. And I really have such a bad burn mark since I was little.My burn mark is on the right of my arm and stomach aswell as on my right foot. It avoided me and kept me from doing things that no normal teenager will do. Such as swimming without a t-shirt, i never wore slippers without socks i never did play any sports because i was shy of the burn mark in the locker rooms. no friend of mine sore me because it looks so bad.

Well MR Bill Gates I just ask if you can wish me a dream come true to play around the beach in a life time without a shirt on me, and many more. my single mother can never afford for a plastic surgery . please sir i beg you. please help me.
