About 3/4 way through it. The guy was a psychopath and sociopath with severe emotional retardation and social skills of a brick.
He also managed to make Apple world beaters twice, fund Pixar and negotiate them into very good deals with Disney and make shedloads of cash and live his life on his terms. So I guess he wins.
Refusing cancer treatment and necking carrot juice instead is plain crazy though.Comment
