Steve Jobs is clearly one of the most universally admired chief executives in history. But it wasn't always that way.

He didn't have the faith of investors back in 1997, when he returned to Apple Computer. The company was barely hanging on, and when Jobs was named interim chief executive in September, the stock price was around $5.50.

What if you had believed in him back then? What if you had bought 100 shares and sold them on Aug. 24, 2011, the day Jobs resigned as CEO?

Apple (AAPL) shares gained nearly 6,740% in that time. And those 100 shares? You would have come away with a cool $37,068.

Is SS the next Steve Jobs??
