Steve Jobs was 21 when he got Mike Markkula to invest a ton of money into incorporating Apple.
Bill Gates was 20 when he realized he came from a rich family thanks to his dad being a good lawyer and his mom was on a ton of Executice Boards.
Ibm.
That's how he got a hold of dos.
IBM is how he got into the PC infrastructure via licensing. He saw what the execs didn't, that anyone could build hardware but what ran on it controlled the world. And I don't know how true it is, but my understanding is that Gates was so shrewd he bet on getting that agreement before he even had the software in hand. Which if true says even more about the IBM execs who agreed to something sight unseen.
That's not being "shrewd;" that's just not giving a fuck about screwing over other people if your bet doesn't work out.
Probably was the parents pushing him(and helping him ofc), but where is the "star child" history in that eh?
