Revista Forbes a publicat topul celor mai bogati oameni din lume si CEO-ul Apple ocupa locul 110 in lista, pozitionandu-se cu 26 de locuri mai sus fata de anul trecut. Desi suntem in plina criza, Steve Jobs a adunat nu mai putin de 3.3 miliarde de $ intr-un singur an, o crestere extrem de mare insa sustinuta de succesul pe care Apple l-a inregistrat anul trecut.
