I don't think Steve Jobs would ever say anything of sorts. Jobs did the exact same thing with NeXT. Does that mean that he didn't consider himself an entrepreneur? Human emotion plays a big role in our decision making and you can't have the same feelings for every project you start.
- staunch 15y agoHe didn't start NeXT with the intention of selling it. He was trying re-create Apple from scratch. Instead he ended up parlaying it into a take-over of Apple and re-created it from within. I'm not weighing in on the definition of "entrepreneur" here, just pointing out why NeXT isn't a counter example.

- PLejeck 15y agoSteve Jobs did not just get a job at Apple and go back to gruntwork or managing a subsidiary. No, he took back the company and reshaped it. If he had been unable to direct Apple in the direction he wanted after the reverse takeover, I doubt he would have accepted it.
