How does Bill Gates invest his billions?

Bill Gates is estimated to be worth around $120 billion, making him the 4th richest person in the world. He made his initial fortune as the Founder, CEO, and Chair of Microsoft and he still owns a little more than 1% of the company, worth about $20 billion.

The rest of his fortune is spread out amongst his private family office, his charitable fund, real estate and fine art.

His private family office, known as Cascade Ventures, is a well diversified portfolio of companies spanning everything from hotels to nuclear reactors to social networking sites for researchers.

His charitable organization is called the Bill And Melinda Gates Foundation, and its largest holding is $10 billion worth of Berkshire Hathaway stock. Gates also owns over $200 million in real estate split between his home state of Washington, horse farms in Wellington, Fl and his own private island off the coast of Belize.

He even owns an extensive collection of fine art, which is estimated to be worth over $120 million, and includes a $30 million Leonardo Da Vinci manuscript and the $36 million Lost on the Grand Banks by Winslow Homer.

The top 0.1% of the 0.1% have historically used art to help protect their wealth for centuries. The British Royal Family’s collection is estimated to be worth over $10 billion alone.

Billionaires like David Geffen, Jeff Bezos, and Bernard Arnault are all avid art collectors.

Plus, there’s a long list of celebrities like Jay-Z, Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, Madonna, and Ellen Degeneres who have reportedly invested millions into art.

The only problem is, regular investors have always been locked out of this asset class because it usually takes millions of dollars to purchase just one iconic piece.

Until now. Investing in art just got easier, thanks to a revolutionary new investment platform called Masterworks.

Masterworks provides a simple, and accessible way for anyone to invest in paintings from famous artists like Picasso, Banksy and Basquiat.

Which is great, because contemporary art prices have outpaced the S&P 500 by 136% since 1995 … and real estate and gold by more than three to one over the same period.

Even better, art has historically been a great hedge during periods of high inflation and market volatility.

Which could be why billionaires like Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and Oprah Winfrey have invested hundreds of millions into this asset class.
