Today is the 20th anniversary of the day that Apple finalized the acquisition of NeXT Software, Inc.

If you had invested in Apple on that day, you would have a made a pretty penny. Consider this tweet from Charles Arthur:

Apple’s stock price was $0.56 (split-adjusted). Today: $130. A thousand shares then cost $560; now worth $130,000. https://t.co/xfD6gUicoD

That’s one hell of a return.
