Eating at a fast-food chain is undoubtedly a wholesome experience but what adds to the excitement of relishing scrumptious burgers and fries is waiting for your order in the queue. We wait for the moment to eat the crispy chicken nuggets as others enjoy their treats. The aroma of the chicken patty and milkshakes tests our patience as the mouth starts to water. Recently, a photo has surfaced on the Internet which shows some people waiting in a line at a fast food joint. What’s special here? One of the people in the queue is none other than Microsoft co-founder and billionaire Bill Gates.
Uploaded on Twitter, the photo shows Bill Gates standing patiently in the line for his order. “Bill Gates at Dick’s Burgers, Seattle, Washington waiting in line to place his order. When you’re worth $82.4 billion, casually dressed, you don’t need ‘swag’ to prove you’re ridiculously rich. He runs the largest charity in the world, & still stands in line like the rest of us, for burgers, fries & Coke…that’s how real winners behave,” the text attached to the photo read.
