As someone who spent a lot of time in engineering meetings with bg in the 90s, I am thoroughly disgusted. I've always been critical of his business decisions, but the human being I knew wouldn't have acted this way. It seems that most people who achieve this level of success/wealth just go off the rails. It is heartbreaking to hear Melinda's side of this fiasco.
I think we know Gates had dinner with Epstein a few times, we don't know that he was involved with Epstein's wrongdoing or that he knew about it but of course we don't know that he wasn't or didn't. I think anybody involved with Epstein, however, demonstrated that they were bad judge of character and could have bad judgement in general.
I am not so offended by Bill Gates having affairs but I am offended with him having affairs with Microsoft employees.
