Steve Wozniak's best investing tips – and why he’s ‘very skeptical’ of most cryptocurrencies

For Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, investing can be a real headache.

"As a rule, I don't invest [often], because then you've got to be watching it every day, and I like my head to be really peaceful and low stress," Wozniak tells CNBC Make It. That's why he says he tries to avoid buying stocks or other volatile assets ⁠– because, as he told Fortune in 2018, a daily obsession with their worth "could corrupt your values."

Still, he'll put money behind a venture he believes in: Wozniak is currently an investor>It has to apply to his life

Wozniak's aversion to investing doesn't stop tech companies from pitching him constantly, he says.

"For ages and ages, I get pitched a dozen times a day to join other companies and startups [that say], 'We're going to be the next Apple, we're gonna be the next Steve Jobs, whatever,'" he says. "I just get so tired of telling them all, I am backlogged and I don't really have the time."
