Comment from Bill Gates the VIII

Which school woulnd’t have their own time-tabling system? This is ridiculous. How could a guy like Bill have gone to a school which did not know how to roster their timetable? If i were principal, i wouldnt pay $4,200 to a kid to teach me how to plan the school roster.

Comment from debrain

Well believe it or not, Bill Gates began programming at the age of 13 and sold his first program at 17. On top of the timetabling software, he also sold a traffic solution system to state governments. That’s an entrepreneur right there.
