“Reddit你好!我是比尔-盖茨，比尔与梅琳达盖茨基金会联合主席及微软创始人。你可以问我任何问题。”
And so they did.
结果人们真的就什么都问。
Fresh from helping to choose the next CEO to run the company he co-founded nearly four decades ago, Gates descended from the mountaintop to mix it up with the new media masses with his second Reddit appearance in the last year.
大约40年前，比尔-盖茨创办了微软公司，而他在帮忙选完微软的下届CEO后，开始与媒体打起了交道。去年他已经参加过一次Reddit问答了，今年是第二次参加。
Even before the festivities officially got underway, Gates posted a video where he answered a question ahead of time by someone left on the Reddit board asking whether he would pick up a $100 bill if he saw the money lying on the ground.
在正式参加问答活动前，比尔-盖茨还在网上发布了一则视频，视频中他回答了此前网友在Reddit留言板上提出的问题，比如：如果你发现地上有100美元，你会去捡吗?
"Well, all my thoughts about money were formed at a time when $100 really was a substantial amount of money...if it's lying there and maybe it belongs to somebody and you ought to find it for them and return it to them," he said. "It'd be nice. They'd probably be fairly distraught about having dropped it. But i would pick it up and give it to the foundation because there, $100 actually buys quite a bit."
比尔-盖茨回答说“在我还认为100美元是一大笔钱的时候，我就已经形成了对待金钱的观念。所以，一张钞票掉在地上，也许是其他人掉落的，而你应该捡起来还给失主。这是善举，因为掉钱的人可能因为掉了钞票而懊丧不已。如果是我的话，我会把100美元捡起来并放进基金会，因为这100美元可以派上很大的用途。”
