Bill Gates' McDonald's Gold Card Offers Free Food for Life, Few Non-billionaires Were Offered One in This Decade
Bill Gates' McDonald's Gold Card Offers Free Food for Life, Few Non-billionaires Were Offered One in This Decade
McDonald's issues exclusive gold cards to individuals as a testament to their success in society. Bill Gates' gold card offers access to free meals worldwide.
Gates can visit any McDonald's worldwide and enjoy a free meal for life.
I didn’t know irony could be this disgusting
This is fucking retarded, of all the people to get free meals for life, they choose someone who is so rich it wouldn't surprise me if he could buy the entire chain of restaurants.
That's the point though, right? It's all publicity. They don't want to give it to someone who may actually use it. Give it to the billionaire who will never use it so.
They don’t want to give it to someone who may actually use it.
They do, at least to some degree. They would love to brag about Bill Gates entertaining an entire Lolita Express's worth of business colleagues at one of their restaurants. And they would love for people to flock to a franchise location to catch a glimpse of Gates, in the same way nightclubs will pay a premium for models and movie stars to show up at their venues.
The publicity of McDs being associated with the Gates brand is worth far more than the number of burgers Gates could consume, even if he shut down a venue buying people hamburgers on their dime.
I had one in college. They do give them out for scholarships and stuff like that to college kids and those in lower income classes. It honestly really helped.
I hate McDonald’s now though lol.
This happens all over the place. I work in media and quite often the famous personalities who have a net worth in the millions get catered meals while the crew has to bring their own lunch.
This is just one example, but it’s so fucking backwards how the more money you have, the more free shit you get.
Not to mention it's McDonald's food of all things
Turns out McDonald's is the good guy after all.
Trying to slowly assassinate the worlds billionaires with high cholesterol and CHF.
They should give it to medal of honor recipients if they're looking for publicity
Why? To kill them off faster?
It just seems to fit that the highest honor in the United States would come with free McDonald's for life
And/or purple hearts?
Probably too many of those to be economically sound.
Give a man a dollar, and the IRS will tax it from you and you'll starve. Give a man a billion dollars, and he won't have to spend a penny of it on food...
I know I'm not the only one that sees the problem with this picture.
Give a man a dollar and 37 cents of it goes to the military
And can't even buy a candy bar with it, before or after tax..
Edit: Funny that anyone would downvote my comment here. It costs almost twice as much for a candy bar as a bottle of beer where I'm from. $1.70 for a bottle of beer, like $2.95 for a candy bar. No shit.
Except when he puts all of his assets in financial constructions so he doesn't pay his share, hence normal people having to pay more.
Wonder if they would revoke it if he just walked in and said "hey, you're gonna feed everyone in this city today..."
Thought I was on Not the Onion for a moment there. Or the actual Onion.
That's kinda disgusting. In a world where we produce in excess the needs of everyone, but some must go without because of ilk like Gates and Buffett, the hoarders are blessed with the gift of also not having to pay for stuff themselves.
Yeah, but he'd have to eat there. Don y'all have laws against cruel and unusual punishments over yonder?
"bUt hE WoRkEd So HaRd tO aChIEvE iT!!"
We all know this is just for clout. It's unlikely that Bill goes to any McD anywhere, that's "below" him, but it still generates bait for brainwashed "entrepreneurs", who see this as "success attracting success". It's not. It's money wanting to show off to different money. You know how heads of state often gift one another useless trinkets as a token gesture? This is that.
in the 1980s my dad somehow ended up with a business card from Carl's Jr with some note on it. whenever he showed it at the drive through, the manager would personally deliver the order and it was all free.
Bill Gates isn't Donald Trump. He wouldn't do that.
Edit: You people really think Bill Gates ever eats at McDonald's unless it's for a photo op?
