BILLIONAIRE Bill Gates stunned diners at a fast food joint as he was spotted waiting in line for a £5.93 burger and fries.
The dressed-down Microsoft founder paid a quick visit to Dick's Drive-In in Seattle on Sunday.
Bill was seen in a pair of trainers, hands in pockets, waiting for his meal at his local take out
Gates, who is worth £75billion and according to The Street earns £98 per second, was snapped by a former Microsoft employee who uploaded the photo to a closed Microsoft alumni board page.
Mike Galos, a local who saw the photo, shared it on his Facebook with the caption: "When you're worth about $100,000,000,000, run the largest charity in the history of the world and stand in line for a burger, fries and Coke at Dick's like the rest of us...
"This is how real rich people behave unlike the gold toilet seat wannabe poser in the White House."
The picture of the 63-year-old has racked up 15,000 likes and 12,000 shares.
Mike added: "Bill's not big on attention but is generally friendly and understands he's a bit of a celebrity.
"I've chatted with him at parties before but on the street or in a restaurant I don't know him well enough to go over and say hi.
"Nobody seems to notice him...he fits right in!" one Facebook user wrote.
Another said: "Bill is legit, unlike some others."
"Bill Gates, a true American." another added.
"I know he's a sucker for a good, greasy tech-fuel burger," one fan wrote.
Many made jibes at the President, comparing the two billionaires' attitudes.
One wrote: "Maybe he should run for office and show how it's done!"
Culled from the Sun.
