Tim Cook is such a chad of capitalism. No scandals, no cheating on his spouse, no useless hail mary projects, no “my rocket is bigger” games, no embarrassing twitter addiction. The guy just wakes up every day at 4am, creates value for shareholders until 10pm, then sleeps and does it again the next day. Quietly collects half a billion a year for his hard work. When he is in the news, he sounds totally human. Here he is biking alone on Sand Hill. Here he is at the grocery store. Bezos and the rest look brilliant but juvenile by comparison. Jobs legacy lives on in his pick, although he himself had some of these holes.

There are two kinds of people you never hear about - Those whose real behavior is spoken about in whispers, like Kevin Spacey, and those who are actually quiet saints, like Fred Rogers. None of Tim Cook's public behavior makes me think he's Mr. Rogers.
- _djo_ 4y agoGiven the scrutiny of tech CEOs you'd think something would have leaked by now if there was something truly scandalous there. Who knows, maybe he is just really good at hiding it, but so far indications are that he might really be the most sane and least eccentric of the lot.
