Gates has made virtually all his money on Microsoft's shares, holding about a third after its founding, but has since donated over half to charity.
Gates's Microsoft stake is now down to 2% of the total stock, indicating his diversified investments beyond Microsoft, which contribute to his wealth.
Despite being passed by other wealthy tech entrepreneurs since 2017, Gates remains the sixth richest with a net worth of $162 billion.
His journey from being at the top of the Forbes Billionaire list from 1995 to 2017 to his current standing illustrates the rapid changes in tech wealth.
