I imagine it is easy to be noble about $$$ when one has MILLION$
"Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak is a Silicon Valley legend.
he remains a figure of prominence in the tech world, speaking at conferences and offering insights on the state of the industry.
But his attitude toward money is surprisingly different from that of most of his peers.
"I didn't want to be near money, because it could corrupt your values."
Wozniak says he doesn't like the growing Silicon Valley trend of "engineers as rock stars," a construct that didn't exist at the time he was helping build Apple: "Mostly it's because of how much money they have — and I went the other way. I did not want to be one of them."
"I really didn't want to be in that super 'more than you could ever need' category," he says.
Wozniak gained his fair share of wealth when Apple went public and is worth millions.
Current CEO of Apple Tim Cook shares Wozniak's concerns about the way riches can corrupt. --------
so Wozniak has MILLION$ and Cook has BILLION$ and yet they think pursuit of $$$ is bad?
perhaps one can be so virtuous and noble about the greedy pursuit of wealth when one has MILLIONS and is not at the mercy of uncertainty but the peasant class does not have that smug luxury
Steve Woz is worth billions. He’s one of the first mega rich to have a “shadow yacht”.
Whats a shadow yacht? “Superyacht support vessels are an increasingly popular way of extending the yachting experience, whether they are used as a floating helipad, tender garage or accommodation for specialist staff.”
The shadow yacht has the helicopter, wave runners, some of the superfluous staff quarters, B class guests, and other toys. It trails the mega yacht at a discrete distance.

finally, a good karasu post
it is equal in nature to any of my other intellectually magnificent musings

Fuck him and his sanctimonious BS. Own it or STFU
I don’t think woz has billions or ever did. He’s rich but not nearly a billionaire according to google. Are you thinking of someone else?

well the article which I posted stated how he is only a mere multi-millionaire, clearly very middle class of him
These millionaire billionaires don't have any schema for what it is to meander to the local tavern/grill early enough to score a happy hour or early bird special.

You're thinking of Paul Allen. Wrong company but I can see why you would confuse the two.
