When asked about a single piece of advice for a new entrepreneur. (And i’d say we should all listen to these guys here…)
Bill talks about economies of scale, and wanting to do great things, no worry about growth and money so much. Love of the game!
Steve talks about how it’s really hard. If you don’t love it you’re gonna give up. It’s a lot of hard work, it’s a lot of worrying. Love it, have passion. You’ve got to be a really good talent scout. Build and organization that can build itself.
Ultimately, the two made it clear that despite their differences they have deep respect for each other. Jobs credited Gates with inventing the software industry. “Bill created a software company before anyone knew what a software company was. Gates credited Jobs with being a brilliant product designer: “I’d give a lot to have Steve’s taste.”
Check out the video recap.
