"I sold my most valuable possession, but I knew that because I worked at Hewlett Packard, I could buy the next model calculator the very next month for a lower price than I sold the older one for!"

In this quote, Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple Inc., reflects on a decision he made to sell his most important possession. He acknowledges that it may appear counterproductive to offer something of high value, however he had a plan in mind. As a worker of Hewlett Packard, an innovation business, Wozniak understood that he would have access to the most recent model of a calculator at a discounted cost. This enabled him to offer his present calculator for a revenue and after that purchase the newer model for a lower rate. This demonstrates Wozniak's tactical thinking and his understanding of the innovation industry, where more recent and much better models are constantly being launched.
