I’m sure most of you are painfully aware of Facebook, and my guess is that many of you (including myself) use it daily. You also might be aware that founder Mark Zuckerberg started Facebook while he was in college at Harvard (like his boy Bill gates) and that he ended up leaving early (again like Gates) to focus on the social networking site. Facebook has been killing it, and it is without doubt one of the darlings of Silicon Valley right now.
As if things aren’t already good enough for young MZ (that’s what I call him), Forbes is now reporting that MZ is the youngest “self made” billionaire on the planet. That is not a bad title to have. Young and rich goes to a whole new level with this one. I’m sure Facebook still has some legs left in it, but it might be time for MZ to bow out soon. Take your bread, maintain some of your youth, and spend some time enjoying your dough before you make your next move.
