The story I heard ....

Gates noted the successful career of Paul McCartney.....and more to the
point, the incredible success Paul had in obtaining the rights to several
thousand ++++ songs.  His revenue stream does not really come from Beatles
success, but his investment in buying rights to songs.  Every time a song is
performed, Paul's bank account goes ker-plunk.

The rich get richer and the rest of us just consume their stuff and make
them richer still....

If you want to feel better, Gates LOST more money in the past few months
then the probable total of all of us on the LUG list..... times 10.
