Bill Gates
Gates, cofounder of Microsoft, is known for his preference for simple, practical clothing. His staple look is a sweater over a collared shirt, a modest choice that has remained unchanged throughout his career.
Gates has long maintained a frugal approach to his wardrobe, avoiding expensive clothes and jewelry. At a 2014 Politico event, the billionaire philanthropist revealed that he wears a $10 wristwatch, news site CNBC Make It reported.
In a 2016 Reddit AMA Gates explained that he does not like to spend money on clothes. “I think people’s spending instincts are set when they are in high school. I don’t like spending a lot of money on clothes or jewelry.”
While Gates has always embraced a low-key public persona, he enjoys certain luxuries, such as frequent travel in his private jets and Porsche 911.
“But beyond that extravagance,” he told British newspaper The Telegraph in 2010, “how much food can you eat, how many clothes can you wear?”
