Who Is Reed Paul Jobs and What is His Net Worth in 2023

Reed Paul Jobs (born 22 September 2022; Age: 32) is the only son of the late Steve Jobs, the former Apple Inc. boss. Reed is believed to be the custodian of his father’s net worth of $10.2 billion.

The Californian-born celebrity kid has never really done any serious work in his life except assist his mother in her organization, Emerson Collective, and launch the mobile app Montage. Even though he hasn’t done much, Reed is still regarded as one of America’s richest celebrity kids. His father’s fortune is still under his mum’s custody and will be distributed to Jobs’s children in due time when, according to their mum, they understand the importance of money.

Reed Paul Jobs’ current age is 32 years old. The American celebrity kid was born on the 22nd of September 1991 in California, which points to his American nationality. However, reed’s ethnicity is listed as White.

The Youngman’s father, Steve Jobs, decided to name him Reeds after his academic journey at the Oregon-based Reed College, where he spent just one semester before going in pursuit of a career.

Reed is the first child and only son of Steve Jobs and his wife, Lauran Powell Jobs, though Steve was already a first-time father from his previous relationship with Chrisann Brennan.

The celebrity kid grew up in a female-dominated home with two direct sisters and one half-sister. Born in August 1995, Erin Siena Jobs is Reed’s immediate younger sister, though her profession is not known. His second sister goes by the name Eve Jobs – an Equestrian champion who joined the Jobs brood in 1998.

As earlier mentioned, Steve Jobs was previously in a relationship with Chrisann Brennan, and they had a daughter named Lisa Brennan Jobs. Reed’s only half-sister works in the journalism field as a writer. The journalist gained fame for the publication Small Fry – a New York Times Best Seller.

Reed is a private person who loves to live his life away from the penetrating eyes of the media and the general public. He is obviously averse to using social media as he cannot be found on any of the popular platforms. However, despite his proclivity for secrecy, the young man has remained in the spotlight thanks to his parent’s fame.

Steve Jobs’ brilliant endeavors in the wheeling-dealing world of business made him a household name. The father of four was a daring businessman who founded and ran companies that grew into multi-billion-dollar concerns.

Reed Paul Jobs’ father is credited as the co-founder, chief executive officer, as well as chairman of Apple Inc. Apple is listed among the major producers of top-notch iPhones and iPads.

Steve also served as CEO and chairman of NeXT after the company was acquired by Apple. He was the major shareholder at Pixar, where he was the chairman and sat on the board of directors of The Walt Disney Company.

Unfortunately, Steve died of cancer on the 5th of October 2011 at the age of 56.

Laurene Powell Jobs is as shrewd as her late husband when it comes to business. She is credited as the founder of the organization known as Emerson Collective, a policy group charged with the responsibility of fighting for educational reform, environmental protection, and social redistribution.

Emerson Collective is also known for investing and engaging in charitable initiatives. The female entrepreneur serves as the organization’s chief executive officer. She founded College Track and sits on its board of directors as the president. College Track is targeted at assisting less privileged high school students to complete their academic journey. Laurene also controls the purse string of the Laurene Powell Jobs Trust.

The mother of three is also neck-deep in American politics and is listed as a major fundraiser backing politicians like America’s current president, Joe Biden, and his vice, Kamala Harris.

Reed Paul Jobs accomplished part of his early education at Crystal Springs Upland School. In pursuit of further academic qualifications, he proceeded to Stanford University; reports said he was initially science-inclined but later changed to arts.

However, after his dad Steve lost the battle to pancreatic cancer in 2011, Reed expressed his desire to change his course of study to Oncology to have the opportunity to investigate the terminal disease. Reports said Reed bagged his first degree in 2015 and stayed back to obtain a master’s from Stanford.

With that said, we must not forget to mention the uncertainty surrounding the young man’s real course of study. While many believe he earned a Bachelor of Arts for his first degree, others are of the opinion that Steve Jobs’ only son is a BSC holder. There is also another version of the story claiming he later went through medical school and is now an oncologist.

There is no defined career path for Reed Paul Jobs, but the youngster started helping out at Emerson Collective after his graduation in 2015. Steve Jobs’ son worked in his capacity as the organization’s Health Director.

A couple of years later, in 2017, Reed Paul Jobs invested in a desktop/mobile app called Montage. The app is targeted at creating a collaborative video surprise just for special occasions.

Since his father passed on in 2011, several sources have published different amounts as Reed’s net worth; many of them pegged it at $10.2 billion, which was Steve’s bottom line prior to his demise. However, according to credible sources, the money was actually bequeathed to Laurene Jobs.

When quizzed on how she shared the family wealth among her children, Steve’s widow responded that she had not distributed any of her late husband’s properties. From what is obvious, she has no plans of sharing the money anytime soon, as the mother of three has revealed that she wants her children to first stand on their own and be able to learn and understand the importance of money before bequeathing it to them.

Steve’s legacy is obviously not lying idle in Laurene Jobs’ hands as the female entrepreneur has grown it to an astounding 19.5 billion dollars as of 2021. It was previously 18.8 billion in 2020.

Even though Reed is yet to lay his hands on the wealth left by his deceased father, the young man is still mentioned on the list of the richest celebrity kids in the world. As someone who lives his life privately, it is difficult to ascertain exactly how luxurious Reed’s life is.
