    You do realize he hasn't lost a thing right?

    Zuckerberg is the poster child for wealth inequality. And the Looney Left licks his ass
    "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man."
    — Joe Biden on Obama.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    It's always funny when cawacko pretends liberals have a brain and want to debate reality.

    All true. I was thinking more in terms of actually selling the company to another business entity & retiring.

    No way a young guy like him would retire. Too driven and he's going to want to see that his company lasts. Not to mention who could afford to buy Facebook?

    (I guess I shouldn't say he would never retire at a young age but for most people like that it's not in their DNA)

    Irony from the author of the thread about how much money Zuckerberg lost; you morons on the left don't have any mirrors?

    Of course; that's what really separates guys like him from most people. They're in overdrive. Plus, Facebook is his baby.

    Companies have tried to buy Facebook before - Google, Viacom, Microsoft. It's worth more now than what they offered, but a bird in the hand & all that.

    I was thinking more at today's valuation. You are right about the past. And the money is more a scorecard to guy's line Zuckerburg when you have that much. As appealing as being able to retire and do whatever we want might sound to you and me I bet he has no desire for it. Goes back to the too driven thing.
