What about those starving children?

Go,
It's easy to make a judgement call about Steve Jobs. But, seeing your post makes me wonder how much you as an individual give to charitable causes each year.

I sure hope that they don't use any animal products to build that yacht. No leather interior and they had best not be eating or drinking any animal products while building it.

I will agree that it is his money and we don't know how much he already donates a year. He can't take it with him you know. He really doesn't need to donate all of his earnings and profits.

To paraphrase P.J. O'Rourke, starving children won't eat a yacht, no matter how long you boil it.

He's in the big leagues now with Sarandon, Robbins, Pitt and Jolie.
The humbling of Jobs continues.

Hey, I love Jobs and his creations, but I don't hold him on a pedestal. Nor pity him.
But I like the Whale Shark ad/photo. Those are cool.

I like that 2005 graduation speech, thanks for the link.
It ranks up there with Guy Kawasaki's "Hindsight" speech.

yeah the speech is well-delivered lip service.

Why can't he have a boat?
