Because, hey, I've got a super yacht, don't you?

I fucking love that boat. It's like his way of tea bagging all the hippie assholes who worshiped him and buy Apple products.

Even Bill Gates didn't spend "years" designing his own fucking boat.

Meanwhile, when Jobs took control of Apple again one of the first things he did was cut all charitable donations by the company.

Wonder how many families that boat could feed?

Have you seen his house?

Jobs had a modest house.

I don't think "Steve Jobs" belongs in the same sentence with "modest" or any variation thereof.

Jobs reportedly spent years designing the 250-foot yacht called Venus which is steered from the control room or wheelhouse by a group of 27-inch iMacs, according to Business Insider.

The more I read about this, the more I'm surprised he didn't call it the iFuckYou.
