Woz is a wise man.

If you've got enough in your pot you don't need to look in the other guy's pot.

I don’t think that’s what’s being suggested. Pay why you owe and what you promise.

Doing anything less than that makes you a dick.

Both are true. Jobs was a dick and Woz handled it nicely.

Woz got screwed over. Should he have pushed back on this? Maybe. Would Woz have had a better life if he had? I'm doubtful. I'd say Woz got the better deal in the long term. His friend had a tumultuous life and ultimately died of stubbornness. Woz seems to have had decades of good living.

If one guy's pot is worth 10 billion, and the other's is worth 100 million, and the first guy got rich from the second guy's work, things seem a little bit upside down. 1% of Jobs wealth is still a lot of money, but the disparity is stark for two people who co-founded the company.

It's approximately 100 million more than you or I have.

Well we didn't found a company with Steve Jobs and get only 1% of the wealth from it.
