If your dad is Bill Gates, you’re probably not getting a Starbucks gift card for graduating college.

In 2018, Jennifer Gates walked off the Stanford stage and onto a 124-acre, $15.82 million horse farm in North Salem, New York. According to Architectural Digest, the lavish estate was a graduation gift from her billionaire parents—and came complete with rolling pastures, three parcels of land, and proximity to New York City for her future studies.

But in case that sounds too much like the plot of “Succession: Equestrian Edition,” Melinda Gates would like to remind everyone: their kids were absolutely raised “middle class.”

    She means she told them to hold their wallet around the blacks in the city, and that only feminine gays are acceptable.

      only feminine gays are acceptable.

      I’m out of the loop for this. Is this something middle class families believe?

        probably confusing it with UPPER middle class people, which are nowhere near middle class.
