Bill Gates’ daughter and her husband are expecting a baby, so naturally they have “outgrown” their New York City apartment that, at 2,400 square feet, is twice the size of most people’s homes, according to an exclusive report by The New York Post.
Mary K. Jacob writes that the apartment will be sold at a loss. Gates spent $5 million in cash for the three-bedroom spread, purchasing it through a trust administered through Watermark Estate Management Services LLC, which he uses for his personal and family matters. The condo at 1212 Fifth Ave. is now on the market asking $4.75 million.
Building amenities include a 24/7 concierge attended lobby, a live-in resident manager, a 2,600-square-foot fitness center, a residents’ lounge and a children’s playroom. Spanning nearly 2,400 square feet, the residence features coffered ceilings and oversize windows for optimal sunlight and standout views of that famed greenspace, according to the listing.
Several updates have taken place since Jennifer moved in, which includes widening the living and dining room areas, and adding a wet bar and a wine fridge. Meanwhile, the third bedroom received a built-in desk, which can also function as a home office or a media room. The eat-in kitchen features Miele and Bertazzoni appliances, as well as custom Italian cabinets, the listing adds. The corner primary suite features three closets with a marble ensuite bathroom that features heated floors and a freestanding soaking tub. All boast dramatic park views, writes Jacob.
Now a med student at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and set to graduate in 2023, Jennifer celebrated the upcoming arrival of her child with a Christmas-themed baby shower on Thursday, according to Jennifer’s’ instagram and a feature story by The New York Post.
Bill Gates has given a statement recently that he hopes and intends to “fall off” the list of the world’s richest people by giving away the majority of his fortune.
“I turned 67 in October. It’s hard to believe I’m that old — in America, most people my age are retired!” he wrote in a Dec. 20 blog post.
“Although I don’t care where I rank on the list of the world’s richest people,” he wrote, “I do know that as I succeed in giving, I will drop down and eventually off the list altogether.”
Gates added, “I started looking at the world through a new lens recently — when my older daughter gave me the incredible news that I’ll become a grandfather next year. Simply typing that phrase, ‘I’ll become a grandfather next year,’ makes me emotional. And the thought gives a new dimension to my work. When I think about the world my grandchild will be born into, I’m more inspired than ever to help everyone’s children and grandchildren have a chance to survive and thrive.”
Bill Gates is one of the most polarizing people on the planet. While the mainstream coddles and celebrates the billionaire, investigative reporters, and members of the “alternative media” world, have traced Gates support of population control and eugenics. Gates has pushed every kind of vaccine under the sun and has been quoted as stating vaccines will help reduce the world population. The often-used video clip of Gates mentioning vaccines and population control, still has never been cleared up, as no journalist has ever dared ask him about it.
