This whole article makes me feel stupid for having read it. How did the author both manage to say “it’s more important to raise your kids than to be a top CEO” and also “Steve Jobs proves that nature is more important than nurture” in the same piece?

And the “great man theory of history” may be passe to historians but I’m pretty sure most of the rest of us still take it seriously.

Steve Jobs had wonderful inventions in the Tech industry. He was an American businessman and like most people who work hard and gamble his time and capital, he knew that his work was for his family.

When he learned of his liver cancer.

He called the top Estate Attorneys to transfer his wealth to Trust to protect his wealth for his family.

God bless him for that because unlike Buffett and other liars.

I understand it. The two comments are not related, though they appear to be at first glance.

It’s like saying rasing kids is more important than having a photographic memory, but Jobs, as did his sister, had a photographic memory. It was not nurture that gave it to him. It was nature.

Oops. I forgot the most important part: Nurture is important because it can give a “Jobs” type person important values upon which the virtues given by nature can be applied.
