摘要
We all know about Bill Gates and his insane rise from being a college dropout to founding one of the most valuable companies in the entire world. This has consistently made him one of the richest people in the world for decades and he’s been able to maintain his dominance on the billionaire's list despite giving away over $50 billion. Clearly, founding Microsoft has made him a celebrity billionaire, but something that most people aren’t aware of is that Microsoft had another cofounder named Paul Allen. Like Bill, Paul was also a child prodigy scoring a perfect 1600 on the SAT. He also dropped out of college and he was arguably the one the pushed Bill Gates to even start Microsoft in the first place. However, when he was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma, his whole world changed. He could no longer spend nearly as much time at Microsoft which lead to animosity between the executives. And eventually, Paul was driven to resign due to his sickness and peer pressure. Fortunately, Paul was still extremely rich, so he was able to live it up. But, Paul was never able to lead and run Microsoft like he wanted to. This video tells the story of Paul Allen: the Microsoft co-founder who got screwed over.
