Bill Gates has so much money that the U.S. needs to use a special computer for his tax return because the normal ones can't deal with the huge numbers.

"So I am constantly getting these notices telling me I haven't paid something when really it is just on the wrong computer," Gates added in comments broadcast on television.

"Then they will send me another notice telling me how bad they feel they that they sent me a notice that was a mistake," he said

Bill Gates's fortune is estimated at $47 billion by Forbes.
