Ah, what a life. Make a few tens of billions of dollars by the time your are 50 and then spend your time helping the world.

Charlie Rose sits down with Gates who likes to spend his time on such things as:

- Energy innovation, trying to find cheaper and cleaner energy sources

- Improving the science education American children are receiving

Gates thinks that individuals and corporations must have goals in order to maximize their achievements.

The mission statement of the Gates Foundation is that "All Lives Have Equal Value," and he is trying to lessen the inequality in the world.
