Just remember that on this day in 1976, Ron Wayne sold his 10% stake in Apple for $800. Today it's worth $58,065,210,000. $58 billion. Ouch.

Would likely kill myself. No rationalization of cognitive dissonance is strong enough for that.

Hope he invested the $800 well

Wow if I didn't kill myself after that, I'd have to live in the woods, totally off the grid.

Reminds me of the Larry David HBO movie.

Sounds like the guy that created Victoria's Secret. He started the store for $80,000, and sold it five years later for $4 million. Less than 10 years later it was worth more than $1 billion. He ended up taking a leap from the Golden Gate bridge in 1993.

I mean, how the frick could he know how much the stock would ultimately be worth? There's no way. For every one Ron Wayne there are millions of other dudes who got out of shitty investments and kept their money instead of getting ripped off for almost a thousand clams.

Whoa. So you're telling me a dude who made $3.92 million in 5 years killed himself?
