His answer to "Are you wealthy?" is sobering, as I would not naively have expected destitution for someone with his technical ability or status as an early Apple employee.

We're presently in the best market of the history of ever, but I think young engineers should be prudent about recognizing that we too will eventually be old some day. Make sure you've got a plan for it.

Wonderful AMA ... take 10 minutes to read his responses. He's depressingly open about the past and present, but it's great to see he has plans for the future.
