He was just so abusive that sometimes he got remarkable results.

Genius? Was he good at math or something?

Steve Jobs had an incredibly high IQ. He created many of apples most legendary products and he perfectly understood what made a good product versus a bad product. He was a severe micromanager and decided the most minute details of products Apple released. He even OKed apples most successful Mac awareness campaign in the mid 2000s.

You can hate all you want but the man is a legend.

Lol, IQ? Why not just say the wrinkles in his skull prove his genius? Stop buying into a billionaire’s self-mythology.

I wish we could continue arguing but you genuinely don’t know what you’re talking about and that much is very clear. So go on thinking what you want. Cheers.

IQ is not and has never been a good measurement of intelligence. So whether or not Steve Jobs had a high IQ is about as relevant as phrenology which is what I was describing with the skull thing. You also didn’t even back up that he did have a high IQ. He was abusive, narcissistic, and willing to take advantage of people. Those were his only skills.

Dragging successful people you've never met down to feel less disappointed in your mediocre life is also a bit narcissistic mate. Getting a group of grown-ups to do what you want, eg. being a leader, will not work if being abusive is your only quality lol. The world is grey, not b&w.
