Steve Jobs credits illegal drugs for his creativity (ed: Steve Jobs was a POS jerk junkie...) Published on October 22, 2011 at 12:52 PM hotmommagossip.com Steve Jobs was a genius. No question about it. But in an authorized biography of his life coming out this Monday, there’s no question that he was also a jerk and experimented with everything to expand his creativity — including acid. Jobs credits LSD as the driving force of why his mind was so open and others were not. ”[Acid] reinforced my sense of what was important – creating great things instead of making money, putting things back into the stream of history and of human consciousness as much as I could,” says in the book. In the Walter Isaacson Steve Jobs biography, the author was able to consolidate hundreds of hours of interviews into a juicy book on the late Apple founder’s life. Where he got his inspirations and the juiciest of them all — what he really thought of other people. This includes telling Obama at a dinner he was heading for a one-term presidency. Telling people that Microsoft founder Bill Gates had a boring mind and was a copycat. And that Google also basically ripped his creations with the Android and going as far as suing them. And in his personal life, he drove women nuts and not in a good way as relayed by his ex girlfriends and even his wife: ”His behavior could be maddening,” his widow Laurene Powell explains.
