Well, being super smart in one field doesn't necessarily mean you have common sense. You could be the greatest physicist in the world but still think lizard people control everything.

TBF Woz was the brains behind Apple. Jobs was just a good salesperson.

Jobs was good at getting the right people together.

So maybe Woz would get rich again? There have to be a few others…

I don't think Woz would. He had the opportunity but realised he had more than enough to last his whole life, so noped out of there to play pinball and watch his children grow up.

He really is the smart one.

Woz really was the friend that Jobs didn't deserve.

This goes along with a thing I like to say: Being rich doesn't make one an asshole. It takes an asshole to become rich.

Except Elon is stupid in all fields.
