DOJ Releases Three Million Epstein Documents Including Emails Referencing Gates
[RECORD.TXT] · cat --full
In January 2026, the United States Department of Justice released approximately 3 million documents from its investigation of Jeffrey Epstein's sex-trafficking network, including emails, calendars, and financial records referencing Bill Gates's meetings with Epstein between 2011 and 2014. The documents confirmed the timeline reported by The New York Times in 2019, added detail on Epstein's internal communications about cultivating Gates, and showed that Epstein explicitly referenced his relationship with Gates when soliciting other donors and academic institutions. The release renewed public scrutiny of Gates and prompted the Gates Foundation to issue a public statement.

Gates keeps a collection of rare and classic cars
Despite his reputation for frugality in some areas, Bill Gates has long indulged a passion for cars, assembling a collection that has included several Porsches — among them the 911 he has owned for decades and the storied 959 — as well as other classics. His automotive tastes, and the saga of importing the then-illegal 959, are among the more colorful footnotes of his personal life.

Gates retreats for solitary, twice-yearly 'Think Weeks'
For years Bill Gates retreated twice a year to a secluded cabin for a solitary 'Think Week,' during which he read stacks of papers, books, and employee proposals with no interruptions, emerging with strategic memos that shaped Microsoft's direction. The ritual became famous as a model of deep, focused thinking by a busy executive, and was credited with helping spark major pivots — including Microsoft's embrace of the internet. Gates carried the habit of voracious, deliberate reading into his philanthropy.
