I’ll say one thing about Laurene Powell Jobs, in 2020 she said she was going to donate the family fortune.
"I’m not interested in legacy wealth buildings, and my children know that,” she added. “Steve wasn’t interested in that. If I live long enough, it ends with me."
I raised an eyebrow at that as Steve wasn’t known for philanthropy. But her fortune is now half what it was when the article was written. Apple and Disney have both done well over the past five years, so that isn’t a decline in portfolio value. It’s giving.
