Tim Cook, the mind that turned Apple's magic into gold

Tim Cook will step down as Apple CEO on September 1, after 15 years in the role. During his tenure, Apple has become the most valuable company on Wall Street, breaking records for capitalization and generating huge profits. Cook has transformed Apple into a well-oiled machine, expanding its product range with items such as the Apple Watch and AirPods, while also growing its services business, including the App Store and Apple Music.

He has also avoided investing in trendy but potentially costly technologies like the metaverse and virtual reality. Cook's net worth is approximately $3 billion, and he is one of 45 Americans to have become a billionaire without founding a company.
