Steve Wozniak cofounded Apple with Steve Jobs and Ronald Wayne in 1976, after Hewlett-Packard rejected his personal computer idea five times. The company is now worth approximately $4.8 trillion in market capitalization. Wozniak gradually sold his 45% stake in the 1980s, which would have theoretically made him the world’s first trillionaire had he kept it. Despite his role as cofounder, he remained on Apple’s payroll as late as 2020, receiving roughly $50 per week. Wozniak completed his degree at the University of California, Berkeley at age 35 and later spent a decade teaching computing to elementary and middle school students.
