Say what you like about either Steve Jobs or Bill Gates, they were both intelligent enough to surround themselves with great people early on and build on their successes rather than squander them.

I think Steve Jobs is the more visionary of the two men, but they're both very rich from their mutual forethought to surround themselves with smart and creative people.
