So you're walking down the street in Seattle and glance through the window of a burger joint to see one of the world's richest men chomping on chips while being interviewed by Charlie Rose of "60 Minutes."

You're nosy, so you shout a question through the glass at Bill Gates?

What do you ask?

Here's the video (you'll have to watch a 30-second ad first).

I won't spoil the ending here, but the question will be in the first comment below for those who don't want to be bothered with the video.

And there's no answer from Gates to the man's question, but had there been it might have gone like this: "More so than most."
