Ronnie Wayne and his lost Apple Billions!

Probably done before but I do feel for Old Ronnie (although they asked him back a few years later and he declined preferring the slot machine business).

I think his 10% stock would be worth $64.4B at today's share price. How would you live with that?

Didn't Apple nearly go bankrupt about 18 years ago? At that point I imagine Ronnie was feeling smugger than Professor Smug, holder of the Jeffrey Archer Chair of Smugness at Cambridge University

Also, had Ronnie been a major sharegolder, he might have suggested to the others "Look guys, I've been speaking to Alan sugar and I think we need to invest in an E-mailer". It could have gone either way....

Goood points all.

Now that Amstrad emailer was a dog - not really Sugar's fault, more BT. And didn't it have a non-querty keyboard as well? I once partnered with Sugar back in the day selling his PCs and our network system. I recall some "interesting" stories from his PA (who was at the time a friend's GF)
