Bill Gates Love him or hate him, he sure hits the nail on the head with this!
Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.
Rule 1: Life is not fair – get used to it!
Rule 2: The world doesn’t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.
Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.
Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.
Rule 6: If you mess up, it’s not your parents’ fault, so don’t whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent’s generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they’ll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don’t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.
Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.
If you agree, pass it on.
If you can read this -Thank a teacher!
If you can read this in English thank a soldier!!!
Bill Gates is greta but the kids who taught him how to respond to the world in a new way are gretaer.
Bill has a problem he is exploitive and he is a nerd who may have blamed his parents in his day but these kids are under fire. He should be told to watch bowling for Columbine a thousand times then he could watch the teacher’s aid beating up that black kid in a loop about a thousand times. Then he could watch the simpering smile of Jenny Mc Carthy telling people she didn’t tell anyone not to get vacinated. Tehn he can tahnlk his lucky stars that he didn’t get labelled as a 30 year old poor social skills/ Asberger’s syndrome sufferer because he finally read the docun=ments related to the mortagage fraud being committed on Wall Street. I say that the dog eat dog program of anihilation has gone far enough. Gates there are many people whio can’t make it in an environment that stiffled competition and focuses on greed and power to people who really are not smart but are instead unscrupulous and privelegeged. Give your speeches to someone who hasn’t made you billions of doallrs next time and give kids the breaks you have recieved from their bounty. Innovation? You bet but don’t bite tha hand that feeds you too much Bill those kids will crash your world you smarmy devil!!!
Bill Gates is great but the kids who taught him how to respond to the world in a new way are greater.
Bill has a problem he is exploitive and he is a nerd who may have blamed his parents in his day but these kids are under fire. He should be told to watch Bowling for Columbine a thousand times then he could watch the teacher’s aid beating up that black kid in a loop about a thousand times. Then he could watch the simpering smile of Jenny McCarthy telling people she didn’t tell anyone not to get vacinated on Frontline. Then he can thank his lucky stars that he didn’t get labelled as a 30 year old poor social skills/ Asberger’s syndrome sufferer because he finally read the documents related to the mortagage fraud being committed on Wall Street ( please note this guy knew it was too late/ he had those mortgages insured rather than make the attempt to get his bosses to reduce their purchases of mortgage futures that they knew would fail). I say that the dog eat dog program of anihilation has gone far enough. Gates there are many people whio can’t make it in an environment that stiffled competition and focuses on greed and power to people who really are not smart but are instead unscrupulous and priveledged. Give your speeches to someone who hasn’t made you billions of doallrs next time and give kids the breaks you have recieved from their bounty. Innovation? You bet but don’t bite the hand that feeds you too much Bill those kids will crash your world you smarmy devil!!! Clean up you own systems first buddy.
