Post things your (least) fav billionaire does.
This used to be the Elon Musk sub, but in an attempt to boost engagement, we have engaged a new pathway.
You can post anything related to billionaires here.

Most tech bros want to be treated like Steve Jobs, who is still seen as "a great and visionary leader" post mortem
Nobody sees themselves as the bad guy. At worst, they see themselves as victims of the system.
Then they should be fired, just like Jobs was, build new empires from scratch, like NeXT and Pixar, then return to save their original companies from the brink of collapse, just like Jobs did. They want to be treated like Jobs, that’s how to do it.
And in spite of all that, he was still a shitty person. He also happened to be good at marketing and functional design.
That's all he was good at. Well, and finding people that could actually create the thing worth marketing.
He was pretty good at eating fruit.
For a while.
The most notable thing Apple did with the iPod was straight lifted from creative. Only people that don't look very deep see Steve jobs as anything but your garden variety dickhead CEO
I mostly see him as a fucking moron that believed in alternative medicine.
and he was extremely lucky with the type of pancreatic cancer he had, slow growing treatable although rare, managable. while most pancreatic cancers are already advanced by the time of diagnosis. PNET tumors vs adenocarcinoma(regular kind). also wasted a LIVER TRANSPLANT too.
For a legacy, he has a pretty good one. I bet if he lived long enough he’d be seen as a crazy billionaire too. I’m sure he’s been to an island or two.
You should learn more about how he treated his family.
To a certain type of person. The rest of us saw him as the predatory dickhead he was.
up until delusions(Logevity obsession) ends up killing him, and htem.
