My man doesn't even see the name of the person, just the company he worked for... Over 30 years ago.

Bro, do some reading, it would help you.

He's a major shareholder and has made over $150 million off his apple association. Stop defending the ultra rich, this guy would fuck and kill your children if it made him an extra buck, he doesn't give a fuck about you. Don't buy into their pr "I'm a good one" narratives

Can you cite a source for that?

Also, I realize 150m is a lot of money to people.. But making only 150m ever from apple stock? Sounds like not alot considering apples valuation so I doubt him being a major holder with that profit from stocks, nor enough that I'd consider "ultra rich" when CEO of reddit makes more than that as a salary per year apparently. That's not even considering stock spez owns.

Judging by your comment history, you seem like a rather unhappy person. I hope you can find peace some day soon, I don't think social platforms will help you find that peace however. Good luck.

He gave a lot of his stock to the workers/friends/fellow founders Steve Jobs deliberately screwed over when they went public.

He could have been a billionaire, as the engineer actually doing the work of early Apple, but he decided his coworkers deserved to share the profit.

Huh.

What does that sound like again?
