When people think of Apple Inc., names like Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak often first to come to mind. However, few know about the third founding member, Ronald G. Wayne, whose story forms an essential element of the company\u2019s inception.<\/p>\n
Born in 1934, Wayne is an engineering inventor, artist, draftsman, and visionary who was at the inception of what would become one of the largest and most influential companies in history when he became the literal \u201cseed\u201d planting investor of Apple Computer.<\/p>\n
Wayne\u2019s visionary journey with Apple began in 1976 when he teamed up with Jobs and Wozniak at Atari. At 42, Wayne was an accomplished senior engineer when he was befriended by young, energetic Steve Jobs.<\/p>\n
On April 1, 1976, the trio came together in Wayne\u2019s home where he typed up copies of the Apple Partnership Agreement, issued his investment, and once it was signed, officially became Apple Computer. Wayne sketched the company\u2019s original logo, depicting Isaac Newton beneath an apple tree; and the rest, is history. Apple has become the number one rated corporation in the world with a market cap of over $3 Trillion dollars in 2024.<\/p>\n
Beyond Apple, Ron Wayne has led a life deeply immersed in entrepreneurial pursuits. He holds numerous patents obtained throughout his career. In 1982, Mr. Wayne began applying his electronics expertise revolutionizing Nevada\u2019s gaming industry with electronic machines, replacing the mechanical versions dominant in the mid-1970s.<\/p>\n
Now making the shift from securing Apple\u2019s place in technology history to the discussion and evolution of economic history, Mr. Wayne\u2019s new book, Tomorrow\u2019s Money: Future-Proofing Wealth for the Next Generation, is a discussion about the history of precious
metals as currency and how money works in society. Right now, the world is on a fiat monetary system. Mr. Wayne warns about an impending meltdown of the dollar and other fiat currencies around the world. It is a \u201cmust read\u201d for students of finance and economics, providing timely advice to financial advisors and investors about strategies they can employ quickly to secure personal wealth in the shadow of an impending and certain global collapse of the fiat money systems.<\/p>\n
Throughout the book, Wayne uses this platform to voice concerns about the potential risks associated with cryptocurrency, especially with the ongoing shift away from traditional currency systems.<\/p>\n
He remains skeptical of the rapid changes in technology where he warns about unforeseen consequences, including issues that remain with security and market instability within digital currencies. He also raises questions about whether these technologies can be safely integrated into the global economy, noting that retail and \u201chomebrew\u201d investors may rely too heavily on digital infrastructure, cyber threats, lack of accountability, and economic manipulation have happened. Given Wayne\u2019s experience with the rapid rise and fall of
tech giants, his insights emphasize both caution and action as we move further into digital transactions and currencies, especially as cryptocurrency pushes towards becoming more mainstream.<\/p>\n
In particular, Mr. Wayne\u2019s investment essays support the strategy of purchasing silver in the form of silver coins and mined silver stocks as a hedge against Fiat. Unlike digital currencies, silver has intrinsic value and a long-standing place in history as a form of money and wealth preservation. Watch for Tomorrow\u2019s Money: Future-Proofing Wealth for the Next Generation, coming January 2025.<\/p>\n
