Quots Said By Bill Gates

We know that Bill Gates is the world’s richest man after he and his partner established their computer company together. Although he is rich, he didnt spent his money in buying something without meanings. Maybe it is cartier jewelry. While cartier jewelry is not very expensive online. We are not surprised that great success happened to him. From his success we know that life is not easy. But we should fight for our life. Ever I have seen a detailed report about him. What he said impressed me in my deep heart.

1.Life is not fairso we should get used to it. If you see somebody wear jewelry like cartier bracelet, it is not worthy for you to envy. As long as you work hard, you can wear any other famous jewelry brand. Also you can buy cartier bracelet too.

2.The world won’t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself.

3.Life is not divided into semesters. You don’t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time.

4.Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to job.

5.You will not make 40 thousand dollars a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with a car phone, until you earn both.

6.lf you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss. He doesn’t have tenure.

7.Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping; they called it opportunity.

8.Before you were born, your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to your talk about how cool you are. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parents’ generation, try “delousing” the closet in your own room.

9.lf you mess up, it’s not your parents’ fault, so don’t whine about our mistakes, learn from them.Anyhow our parents do everything for us. They would help us whenever and wherever we are in difficulties.

10.Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.

11.Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools they have abolished failing grades; they’ll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance to anything in real life.

I am a lover of Cartier Bracelet. If you want to know more about Cartier Jewelry, please go to our website:www.cartier4us.com.
