Lads, I'm gonna correct the bait post; please don't call me gay for absolutely jerking this man off.

>Oh Linus, what is your net worth?
>>around 1 million
His net worth is estimated to be between 50–150 million.

>how did you earn it?
>>donations. people just gave me money.
>The overwhelming, vast majority of money donated to the Linux Foundation came from...............................................................................................
>Bill motherfucking Gates
His received stock options in Red Hat and VA which would more than meet your 1 million estimate; however, the bulk comes from the Linux foundation which amounts to ~1.5 million per year. Funding comes from Google, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, and countless other projects that are dependent on Linux for their infrastructure. To suggest this is meaningless would be to write out Apple for using Microsoft systems in their factories.

>What he did is not impressive.
Go write any piece of software that is as widely used as Linux or Git. It's ludicrous to suggest that his contributions to this world aren't impressive.

>he purposely kept c++ out of the kernel so he could force rust
No, faggot; he purposely kept C++ out of his kernel since it was easier to write than C and he wanted to prevent retards from contributing. We should find a similar litmus test for /g/.
