From there, the pair would relocate to Washington State and in 1986, Microsoft went public, selling for about $21 a share. That price quickly rose to $35.50 a share and by the end of the day, about 2.5 million shares were sold. Gates, then 30, "sold $1.6 million in shares and retained a 45 percent stake worth $350 million. Microsoft stock climbed more than a hundredfold between 1986 and 1996,"And just one year after going public, Gates became the youngest billionaire in 1987.
