How rich is she, as of now? Phoebe Adele Gates Net Worth and Assets

The family’s net worth also include such assets a $127-million-worth earth-sheltered mansion, called Xanadu 2.0, and luxury car and jet collections, etc. Furthermore, Phoebe’s wealth will certainly increase in the future since her father has stated that he would leave $10 million for each child while around 95% of his fortune would be donated to charity, but for the moment, the Gates’ offspring are allowed only modest ‘pocket money’.
