Being the richest man in the world . . . he won't be needed in the office anymore . . . just signing papers I guess . . . his money will not deplete no matter what he does, as just the interest it is incurring in the banks keeps on piling up . . . he will be a trillionaire in a few year's time . . . .

microsoft is a listed company,
here you can see recent prices for the stock
Bill gates owns around 1 billion shares which amounts to around 15% or so of the company
based on that, his net worth is around $US 50 billion
here you can see his person wealth clock!
