Most recent estimate by Forbes has him as the 35th richest man in the world with a net worth exceeding $20 Bullion.

$2 billion is less than 10% of his wealth. I think he’s wants to follow the footsteps of the other Microsoft Billionaire, Paul Allen who owns the Seattle Seahawks and the Portland Traiblazers.

He’s no fool……he’s in his 60s, has 20 bill, and wants a new toy…….

A fool? Hardly. Steve Ballmer is a very calm, intelligent man.
