Most people think Steve Jobs invented the iPhone.

He didn’t.

The real story is much darker and nearly tore Apple apart.

Here’s the story of the wildest product launch in tech history: 🧵 Image In 2002, Apple was losing its grip on the future.

Smartphones were clunky.

Touchscreens sucked.

And Jobs hated the idea of making a phone.

But a group of rogue engineers started building one anyway.

She is the youngest billionaire you've never heard of...

Melanie Perkins.

She started in a tiny apartment in Perth, Australia.

Her first idea? A yearbook design tool called Fusion Books.

No VC interest or Silicon Valley spotlight.

Just an obsession and a dream.

This man can predict startup success.

Peter Thiel — PayPal co-founder and Facebook’s 1st investor — turned $500K into billions.

Before he writes a check, he asks 7 brutal questions.

Most founders fail the 1st one.

Test yourself with these questions: 🧵 Image Most startups don’t fail because of bad ideas.

They fail because the founder can’t answer the right questions.

Peter Thiel knew this in 2004 before most of us had Facebook accounts.

So he built a mental framework to spot winners early.

I bet my life savings Emma Chamberlain will be a billionaire by 2035.

Not because she got 1.7 BILLION views on YouTube or built a $20 MILLION coffee brand from scratch.

But because she cracked the code on capturing Gen Z attention (her method is surprisingly calculated): 🧵 Image It's 2017.

A 16-year-old starts posting awkward vlogs to escape school and mental health spirals.

No fancy lighting. No brand deals.

Just rants, zooms, and chaotic editing.

Emma was chasing something different...
