Steve Jobs, Steve Jobs, they all cry but how many people really knew the Apple founder?
I must confess I never heared much about him until his death even though I am a big fan of  the Apple Iphone, Ipod, Ipad and Mac Pcs.
Anytime someone talks about Steve Jobs as if they knew him as a man before he died, I just wonder if he was this loved in his lifetime.
Do people claim to love him when what they really love is their Ipads, Iphones and Macs.
Loved or not, I respect the innovations of the man in both the music, telephone and computing industries.
He was able to
position Apple as a forefront company and was among the richest men in the world according to forbes.
Fellow billionaire/ Microsoft executive,Bill Gates reacted to Job's death with these words "For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it's been an insanely great honour. I will miss Steve immensely."
Here are a few amazing things about Steve Jobs:
1.Steven Jobs was adopted at birth by a couple named Clara and Paul Jobs. His biological parents are Joanne Simpson and Abdulfattah John Jandali, a Syrian.
2. He was a college drop out. Which is a trend for some of the world's famous billionaires including Bill Gates... (Hey don't drop outta school, that doesn't make you a billionaire).
3. He has a sister who is a famous author.
4. He initially denied paternity of his first love child at age 23.
5. Steven Jobs earned a ridiculously low salary of $1 annually.
Truth is Steve Jobs did impact on so many people in his lifetime either through provision of jobs or by usage of his Apple products like the Iphone, Ipad, Ipods and Macs.
