- Steve Jobs' 'brutal last words to his daughter as he lay on his deathbed' - Daily News
#SteveJobs, #brutal, #last, #words, #daughter, #deathbed /form Steve Job's daughter has revealed how her father told her that she 'smelled like a toilet' as he lay on his death bed, a new book reveals. Lisa Brennan-Jobs, 40, has released a tell-all memoir about her tumultuous relationship with the legendary Apple founder who passed away from pancreatic cancer in 2011. The book, titled Small Fry, reveals how Jobs initially denied paternity of his daughter but was forced by a judge to pay child-support after a DNA test proved that he had fathered Lisa during his five year on-off relationship with Chrisann Brennan during the 1970s. Lisa wrote in an excerpt published in Vanity Fair: “I was required to take a DNA test. The tests were new then, and when the results came back, they gave the odds that we were related as the highest the instruments could measure at the time: 94.4 percent. The court required my father to cover welfare back payments, child-support payments of $385 per month, which he increased to $500, and medical insurance until I was 18.” Lisa, born in 1977, says she was forced to move home over 13 times before age seven as her mother struggled to pay the bills through a series of cleaning positions, while Jobs, then already a multi-millionaire, refused to help. “For him, I was a blot on a spectacular ascent,” she writes, “as our story did not fit with the narrative of greatness and virtue he might have wanted for himself. My existence ruined his streak.” Lisa reveals how she regularly visited her father at his Tudor-style home in Palo Alto in the final 12 months of his life but said she was made to feel like a "nuisance" during her trips. “I’d given up on the possibility of a grand reconciliation, the kind in the movies, but I kept coming anyway”, she admitted. During one particular meeting her father cruelly told her she "smelled like a toilet" after she had sprayed an expensive rose mist on her face in one of Job's bathrooms. “Before I said good-bye, I went to the bathroom to mist one more time,” she wrote. “The spray was natural, which meant that over the course of a few minutes it no longer smelled sharp like roses, but fetid and stinky like a swamp, although I didn’t realise it at the time. “As I came into his room, he was getting into a standing position. I watched him gather both his legs in one arm, twist himself 90 degrees by pushing against the headboard with the other arm, and then use both arms to hoist his own legs over the edge of the bed and onto the floor. When we hugged, I could feel his vertebrae, his ribs. He smelled musty, like medicine sweat. “‘I’ll be back soon,’ I said. We detached, and I started walking away. “‘Lis?’” “‘Yeah?’” “‘You smell like a toilet.’” During childhood, Lisa says her father began visiting her about once a month after he temporarily reconciled with her mother, bringing her roller-skating through the streets of her neigbourhood. During one visit she innocently asked if she could be given his Porche after
I worked on the LISA launch and had to meet with Jobs a few times. He was exactly the kind of sorry human being like the books and films and films portrayed him. After one inauspicious meeting he insisted we continue the conversation another time. I did not show up. I can happily claim I once stood up perhaps the most influential person of business in the world.
Good for you! He was a monster!
@@chrismills7371 did he ate you
@@claudia-Silva uh, what do u mean by zero value? I did not show up cause I saw how he treated others. Unless you were in Happy Valley back then you do not know what you are talking about. The Valley was booming and I like others just moved to the next company. IMO one of worst things he did was parking in handicapped zones CAUSE THE MONEY MEANT NOTHING TO HIM.
@@claudia-Silva Oh, Laurene.
@ralph @claudia
That’s a really cool story that you stood him up
And I respect that you apologized Humility
The fact that an adult would be so callous to a child and tell them they are getting nothing is unbelievably cruel. And he was adopted at that.
What about it from his perspective?
Why would a self made man like him whose priority is business give cheats to anyone... even his own daughter?
You may call him heartless but the way I see it he has his own reasons which seemed totally justified to him at the time. Most likely underdeveloped emotions from before adulthood.... he died... if he suffered the same amount of pain from cancer and lived after even more horrendous experiences he might have changed for the better... too bad he died earlier than expected.

@@ucsucs3722 Wth are you on about?
He was a jerk to his daughter the entire way through, nothing excuses him for his actions. He is merely doing the same thing his bio parent did to him.
Lets tell it like it is - KARMA BABY. He knew she was his daughter GOD knew too ( sent him to HELL) 😎
@@roylehew3164 He's in heaven, but ur going where ur mom is going to. Straight to hell
Looks like Steve Jobs ignored the most important "Gift,"
his daughter.
Jobs is a perplexing figure; he changed the entire world, and no one can argue that fact .... he created products which made All our lives better .... but he was, also, and undeniably, a complete prick
So he was basically Mozart, a complete asshole but skillful in his field
Tragic. “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, but lose his soul?" -Mark 8:36”
Great enlightening words...respects from India.

Well said !
salauddeen syed Jesus really was ahead of his time
My sentiments exactly (said with sadness 😪).
Judge not less we be judged. You don’t know what their relationship was like. He may have been exactly the type of father her soul needed.
I’m sorry to say this… I happened to see a video of his speech under the title “ Inspiring Speech by Steve Jobs” or something like that… for the first time. But when I saw his face I decided this guy wouldn’t be a nice person at all and his face reminded me of someone I know. In the second video I learned about how he denied being father for his very first child. Then I thought I was correct in what I thought about him. Being a millionaire, he ignored his own child. Cold hearted person. There is a proverb in my language “ The beauty of the heart will be reflected in the face.”
Never heard that saying before. Its loverly and very true.
My mom said that about Camilla parker bowles@@amysands8925
So sad... even at Death’s door you can’t even have loving words to your daughter. If anything, that WAS the time to say something. How cruel... the picture of Lisa smiling always warms my heart ❤️ bcuz she appeared to be happy 😊 I hope after the book she can spend quality time with her family. This is her chance to give her kids a loving, caring, supportive life she had always wanted from her father. 😟. Update: Just saw an interview with Lisa... I’m so happy she had a nice moment with her Dad 🙂
If you want to think about it in a cold way.... He stayed truth to himself even at the last moment
Given that 1 in 5 CEOs are clinical psychopaths, I think we can say, without a doubt, he was one.
So Sad...A Man So Wealthy...Be So Selfish To His Child. I Hope That Book Serves As Therapy And Helps Her To Acquire Happiness.
She wanted nothing to do with him until he was a billionaire and likely said lots of hurtful shit to him
@@mattk8810 He left her, of course she wanted to know nothing about him.
Sad. He was a cruel cruel man to this child
SC what are his last words to Lisa?
Ethan Paul Cataritas It was “you smell like a toilet” lmao
@@katherine-oh3rt lol
If business and wealth are at the top of your priorities, decency isn’t.
Now that is deep! Seriously.
Poor girl. He was filthy rich and paid such measly support. I hope she can heal. It is hard when you are that child living in poverty while the dad lives a wealthy life without you in mind.
John Connor he neglected her it’s not just about his wealth. He didn’t want to believe she was his biological daughter so he treated his wife and daughter poorly.
What did she do for him? She don’t not deserve that money

Everyone is inspired by success and wants to become rich and successful like him. How many of use are so cold-hearted like him?
I am
Need to be like that to be successfull
@@benpietrzykowski9216 Depends on your definition of “successful.”
Exactly. I wouldnt want to be a billionaire while denying the existence of my own daughter who craves a real parent. That's not success to me
@This Ant Knows about the Volcano sadly god is a false construct
He made 500 or so an hour, and only gave that much to his daughter a month, that’s cruel
Its his choice its his money he worked hard for it not Lisa a billionaire can give 100 dollar or a million its up to him or nothing
Yes give child nothing while giving millions to charity lol
@@tekkie740 and it’s more like 500 a minute or second 😂
@@akshatjindal6012 what child support is not voluntary, and the amount is determined by the court...
@@akshatjindal6012 what's the value of the money, he died a lonely souless meat. If a man who earns that much money can't support his own child and love them back, then he isn't a man at all, he is just a greedy animal.
He had a bad relationship with his father, his daughter .. this shows you career success is not everything, success as a human is everything.
It shows you he wasn’t happy
How could a parent treat their child that way. He didn’t deserve a daughter!!!
He’s a creep cold hearted soulless monster just now a good guy his daughter deserve better May she be loved healed and blessings to her always
Jesus, is English your third language?
The unhappy childhood of a child abandoned by both parents has something to do with it
But he had loving, patient, accommodating (adoptive) parents who raised him right. He treated them pretty shabby, but they loved and accommodated him unconditionally.
@@susanreina4008 and you were there to see his adoptive parents loved him?
Same as my story
The pressures people go the in life and the negative picture people paint for views without considering the feelings of those effected weather alive or dead. It saddened me more to see the state that people's hearts have evolved over time.
Fame & Fortune burn brightly on the front gas whilst kindness & generosity simmer gently on the back burner.
Thanks!
Apple Lisa tells a different story of the love of father. May be Steve was treated very badly and ditched/cheated by Lisa's mother, and her mother only wanted money from him after the relationship ended.
Imagine putting all your dirty laundry outside for the world to see.
*A brilliant man could also be a selfish bastard.*
Be in the world but not of the world... this man was the world and look how poor he actually was.
He had mental illness and personality disorder
Happiness and success are not same. Steve was a horrible person and not happy or lucky. Blame goes to his dad for abandoning him after his birth. Nevertheless we was not good person
He was very happy in his life he enjoyed his life but the daughter thing is only because he was adopted and his real mother didn't wanted him
Poor lisa.
I think he meant that the rose odor was what he remembered in the bathroom. If she had access to the soray, so did everyone else. I doubt he meant it like it is portrayed here. Remember that he was very, very ill.
It's not like he was ever kind to her
HE WAS JOKING!
Sry but, what are his last words to Lisa? Smelling like a toilet? Or never giving her anything.
I think he said you're not getting anything when she was 7, in a delayed response to her asking for his Porche.
You should question why your mom chose to have a relationship
With this man Never forget it takes to your mother has a significant responsibility for putting you in this situation
If your father abounded you, you'd ask your mother why she married him? You'll hold her responsible for his choices and behaviour??? What a flawed logic you have.
It's always the woman's fault, right ?
@@betht840 woman moment
Jobs will never be missed.
@Francisco Le Buff I would rather have no one ever remember me, after my death, than to be remembered as a cold, cruel asshole ... just sayin' ..... :/
@Francisco Le Buff I wouldn't he so sure about that.
Steve was a true genius. I had the honor of interviewing him on the phone twice as a student.
Not exactly the time to comment this dawg
@@pixel6854 when should I comment then next year??
@@uinisefaustinafoochong7743 probably should have used better wording; not the best context to use this statement in.
@@pixel6854 okay thanks mom
@@uinisefaustinafoochong7743just a strange way to intercept. There are plenty of videos on his technological and business accomplishments where you would write that. This video is about how shitty he was to his daughter.
In Islam we are told charity removes sicknesses and problems that come in future. He didn't believe in charity and he died a sick man even he had all the money in the world to save him. I have noticed people who get in life threatening diseases or problems are usually people who are stingy or do not help others.
Bin Dawood money cant save you which is basically what charity is dont shove that religion stuff in my face
Even at death's door he fought reality, the reality of what really matters is family, connection to others and giving, People that don't forgive and have grudges manifest sickness , they hold on in a sort of stubborn fog, not seeing clearly and forgiving. Exactly about what you said.
My(ex)husband is a big lover of Steve Jobs. Admires him deeply. One thing they have in common - my ex also doesn't give a damn about his child. He hasn't seen his child for years, nor has he paid any maintenance fees for years.
But he reads all the book that Jobs read and meditates and studies yoga like Jobs did.
Well, if one meditates for hours and does yoga but lives a life of a heartless d**k, I question whether those practices are any good for us 🙈😀
The question isnt if those practices are good. The question is, is your ex husband a good human being.
Business genius, not a good human, not a good dad.
It is really bad test that Lisa wrote and published this about a deceased person.... Why did you not write it when he was alive???
Exactly! I can't judge without hearing both sides.
Wow...karma?
That he's a legend, while she still craves constant attention???
Lisa was her mothers anchor baby. Thats why jobs wont help.
I get it that some people need to hear "I love you" spelled out in direct and clear words. But I can tell you with absolute certainty, as a friend of various linguistically-emotional-trainwrecks, at that moment of goodbye, where he said "Lis" and she turned around and he said "you smell like a toilet", that was it. That was "I love you", it meant nothing else but that.
I think Steve Jobs wanted to refer, as a CLEAN bathroom odor
You seem familiar
Lol
I think the "toilet" remark, in context, was a joke. Their relationship always remained cool, but it's difficult to imagine Steve Jobs being _that_ much of an asshole to their daughter months before he died.
Steve Jobs changed the world.....he made it worse
Greedy bastard ended up biting the dust & all his wealth didn't mean a thing at the end. That goes to show money can't buy everything more importantly your health & family matter's most & no amount of money can buy those two. He obviously never had any dignity for his family as a father & husband.
He was a very loving family man. Unlike this narcissist daughter of course.
And he is a legend, while what are u??? Self reflect first, remember ur gonna die too. I hope when ur mom dies, u remember it was because of her sins 🤗
Also he never cared about wealth. He was more into doing good for the world and doing what he loved. I hope ur learn some basic decency before u "bite the dust".
@@claudia-Silva Do u even read what u speak??? The irony in ur statement is amazing.
He was extremely intelligent, and knew a lot about a lot of fields, and gave a lot to the world.
And here, I u are a n " obody, " nar " cisst seemingly out to destroy his legacy.
Anyways, I hope u fix whatever is wrong in ir life, and get inspiration from this great man he was. 🤗✌️
Lmao, to the OP.
Ur out here hating a man u don't know, shows ur upbringing 😀.
Anyways, I can bet u neither have a family nor money. No one is even gonna know when u bite the dust 😂
A sad story, so rich that blinded his eyes of Gods intensions WHY? 😩😩😩😩
What's the music used in this video please?
So sad that most of the world of ‘the rich and the great’, don’t contemplate, they have to leave it all behind and there’s a Judge, the creator, who you will stand before. “For God SO loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever receiveth Him shall not perish, but have Everlasting Life”. Think on it. Get a Bible. All truth is there!
Health is wealth
Jobs' life was a grinding day by day so he can feel his death. Steve died by suicide...
😭😭😭😭😭
Steve Jobs is super shady.
Don't forget. Past Predict Future.
A sorry lost soul,he turn everything to nothing, he will regret it in the end, when our ressurection comes, and face our creator for judgement, then when God ask,WHAT did you do? Theres nothing you can say, but theeth grinding. Satan wins your SOUL, which is the MOST important in us ang of God. Amen
All that money yet as tight as a duck’s arse. The money sure did him a lot of good as he lay dying!
Steve Jobs was a genius. Every genius has their own battles, and often don’t live a happy life outside of work. Work and their passion is what they crave and go crazy for.
He is still a bad person but who am i to judge we all are a bad person
Oh he sure loved making money off children
@@falahfalah948 you say you are nobody to judge yet you just said he’s a bad person ;-;
Bring on the Psychiatrists, tout suite!
@@kiryukazuma7960 it's not judging to say someone is a good or bad person, it is an assessment.
It is polite to say nice things about the dead or nothing. Nothing from me then.
If my father said that to me on his deathbed after years of treating me like ish I would have pushed his ass of the bed and left him on the floor or I would have put the pillow over his head like how bout that
He loved his daughter, but refused to ever admit it. He named his computer after her. He deeply believed that people needed to earn his respect, but he loved his daughter unconditionally and thought he needed to lie about it, even to her face, and even on his death bed.
You realise the movie is romanticized do you?
@@greysonmartina8492 in the book written by Isaacson, he interviewed Steve a lot and there were a couple of times when Steve mentioned he regretted not having spent enough time with Lisa. He also said when asked about the name Lisa for the computer, his reply was "it was because
of my daughter of course" and he often took her to the apple headquarters
Was their an armored truck following the hearse?
to me- one thing he was not is a genious. he throve on others invention and hardwork. but he was a great marketer for sure along with some other great qualities; genious is not one of them. He cheated and kept the money of the game Wazniak created when they were young. he was a bully, bad father and a cheat.
WhT got to me was Jobs would not give any shares to a guy who worked with Woz and him. I was at Apple the day of IPO. Dozens of people going crazy about their new wealth. Mike Markala begged Jobs to give the guy some shares even offering to match Job's contribution. Jobs did not think the guy contributed that much. WTF?
i wouldn't speak to him and use a pc and android screw apple.
Did u have opportunity to speak with Jobs?
Click bait
Did he try to take me down with him? Yea
Who r u to Jobs?

Just one ego indulging in their despair over another ego. Both are just egos though, aiming to both put their own ego above the other. Nothing new, just look next door. Same story 9 billion times over.
I would like to study HIS parents....a lot of disfunctionalism seems to be apparent!? It seems they destroyed him??!!!
My view of Steve Jobs dropped a bit here, from a solid 10/10 to a 3/10 wtf dude you were super fucking rich and she was your daughter... Well, looked at her networth, she is good for 100k mil USD, so he did pay up.
I really don’t believe this
imagine feeling entitled to money... tf am i listening to rn
What the hell are you talking abour
His love was himself and unless he repented at his death his eternity may be as the rich man’s in the Bible where he was far above the poor man he lived and ate well while the poor man begged for scrapes and ate among the dogs the rich man ignored him he was not a good man ….one day they both died the poor man was a good soul and went to heaven the rich man went to hell as he withered in pain and suffering he asked could the poor man just dip his finger in water to cool his tongue but there was no relief
thats just twisting the words....he probably just said it matter of factly like anyone would do if their daughter actually smelled like a toilet...easy to sensationalize things in media to sell books etc..
We are hearing only one side of the story. She didn’t cash in on the scratched Porsche, but looks like she’s squeezing money from him none the less, with this book.
I agree, if only we could hear both sides
I mean steve was pretty open about how poorly he treated his daughter
Screw her this is about money for her.
Thanks for reminding me a lot of people are super cynical and not only that project onto others they can only do stuff for the money.
Well, it’s her story, too.
Ill assume that everyone jumped on the $$$ bandwagon,its understandable to me
Devil
Just like he would want you got the last insult you got the last word I guess you win you’re just like him he was awkward and vindictive you’re just vindictive good luck
brilliant and a piece of s&#??%T at the same time ,weird
Omg 😭😭😭😭😭
How he can cruel for his children
He should give her 1 Millon dollar per year 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡.
No why should he
Jobs the snob, was a no good, dirty, rotten, filthy, stinkin, dead Carcas !! In other words , he was the stink of the Stinks !!
So it was old man Karma who got him
Steve death wasnt a good one.Maybe
Its Karma for treating his daughter like crap. Reguardless, I will never buy an Apple product.Its crap anyway.
Yes, let him rest!!!!
what is truth
Steve Jobs was a b...........
She hold grudges to her father after what he told her on his deathbed!
Her book belongs to the garbage!
He told her she smelled like crap, so she would bathe, and not embarrass herself in front of others with her bad hygiene. Ingrate.
Millions in the bank, man has to leave it all someday, little in your pocket you have to leave it someday. Christ died on the cross to bear your sins. Accept Him and don’t die as a fool dieth The Bible is the only everlasting Book, no fear, just Christ waiting to receive His own, who has received Him. Then you have everything to gain.
To the daughter, let him rest In peace. Trying to make money telling all those details?
I think it's more on "getting even"
@@fabarangan it cuz shes greedy and still wants money. What a bum
@@lionheart5329 She didn't get anything from Jobs when he died. So I guess this book is her way of getting even and make money.
@Floyd1504 So what if he named a computer after her? He denied naming it for her for years and called the LISA Local Integrated Software Architecture which doesn't mean anything. He only admitted he named it for her daughter when he's old and sick. And then what else did he gave her? Nothing. That's the kind of father Steve Jobs is.
I don’t think it’s fair to assume she wrote the book for money. I think now that he’s gone, she didn’t have anything to fear if she told the truth. Steve was pretty open about how he treated his daughter poorly too.
U people are just seeing one side of the coin, the truth is Lisa and her mother were after her father just because of his huge fortunes and Steve just realised that from the beginning that's why he hatted her, I sure if Steve would have been a poor guy this daughter would not have even liked to attach his father's name with her.
He left them first tho. And he didn't know “they were after his money” when his gf got pregnant. 🤨 He left them either way. Or are you gonna tell me a baby was after his dad's money and he left her because of that? Lmao. He left her, so at least she should have some money from his DAD. 🤷♀️
