I'm pretty sure you're right - Bill donates BILLIONS of dollars to charity and humanitarian cause(s), so he needs to have billions on hand to do that.

You don't see Steve Jobs "dumping" his shares because he doesn't donate most of his money, like Bill Gates does.

Also, Steve Jobs (until recent health issues) was very active in every aspect of Apple, whereas Bill Gates has been in the process of disengaging himself from Microsoft.
