"Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me ... Going to bed at night, saying we've done something wonderful... that's what matters to me."

Would have been much more impressive if he'd proven that being rich while alive didn't matter to him.

Honestly, how many people care about how much is in their bank account after they die? Probably not very many.

Plenty chase riches while they're alive, however. And good old Steve was no exception.

If you run out of ideas, you start to help the world in the easiest way - by giving away your money.

Jobs hadn't run out of ideas though.

Wait a minute, are you really putting a negative spin on someone giving away their billions to charity?

They're Apple fanboys, what do you expect. Next they'll start quoting Ayn Rand.

Thankfully Steve himself had far superior cognitive capacity.
