Bill Gates reveals he was a “misfit” as a child, often clashed with his parents

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has revealed plans to release his highly anticipated autobiography titled “Source Code: My Beginnings,” which will be released on February 04, 2025. It promises to offer an intimate glimpse into the life and experiences that shaped him as one of the biggest tech leaders worldwide.

Source Code will provide insights into Gates’s early life, tracing his journey from a misfit kid to a rebellious teenager, who is navigating the complexities of family dynamics. While announcing his memoir, he has also confessed, “I’ve been in the public eye since my early twenties, but much of my life before then isn’t well known.”

Gates further said, “Over the years, I’ve often been asked about my upbringing, my time at Harvard, and co-founding the company. Those questions made me realise that people might be interested in my journey and the factors that influenced it." Additionally, the memoir will also cover his formative years as a child, his “rebellious” teenage phase when he “butted heads” with his parents, and other big secrets.

The memoir will also shed light on his university days, and how he was close to getting kicked out of college. The book would further reveal some personal details of Gates and the sudden loss of a loved one, events that have shaped his personal and professional path.
