Steve Jobs
In 1986, Jobs  bought the computer animation studio Pixar from movie director George Lucas. Jobs sold Pixar to Disney in 2006. He also became a member of the Disney board of directors. Pixar went on to make many largely successful movies. These included Toy Story (1995), Monsters, Inc. (2001) and Cars (2006). Jobs made more money with Pixar than he did while he was with Apple in the 1970s and 1980s.
