💲 $400 Billion Sold for Just $800 ❗

One of the most expensive exits in business history…

Ronald Wayne was Apple’s third co-founder.

Just 12 days after Apple was born, he sold his 10% stake for $800—choosing safety over risk when Apple was still a garage dream.

📌 If he had held on:

• That stake would be worth ~$400 BILLION today

• He’d be among the richest people in history

Wayne later said he feared personal financial liability if Apple failed.

Meanwhile, Steve Jobs & Steve Wozniak embraced the risk.

💡 Lesson:

Success often rewards those who can tolerate uncertainty.

Sometimes the biggest mistake isn’t a bad decision—

👉 it’s exiting too early.

History doesn’t remember the safe choice.

It remembers the bold one. 🚀
