That was a great explanation. For others, work is their hobby - how to be bigger, better, more profitable, etc. At some point, it's not about the income, per se. The income becomes more like a points system.

And 99% of the population is never going to be the founder of or even the CEO of any size company, let alone one that makes the sort of impact an Apple, IBM, Microsoft, Google, Boeing, Honda, etc has on people around the globe.

Also, this is becoming my catch phrase, but don't get caught up in the binary thinking that says because a person works long hours and with intensity for a long time, they never experience personal relationships, never travel, etc.

If your investments have any exposure to actively managed US equity funds or a NASDAQ-style index fund, you are most likely an AAPL shareholder.

Right, but why should I shed a tear?

I find it weird that the world is mourning a businessman
