4. This has incredible implications.
Think about it. Bill Gates' Microsoft empire is located in Seattle, Washington.

Microsoft does business all over the world. And Bill Gates is publicly saying he has no confidence in his own currency.

The Ol dollar is going to go down? From what?

It's already in the toilet.

Some observations:

1. For Gates to be saying this, is alarming. He is very influential. He could start a run on the dollar.

2. What's he going to do? Start taking payments in Euros? Maybe the US should start using Euros. Problem solved.
