Facebook Founder Mark Zuckerberg

Mark Zuckerburg is the founder of Facebook and has risen his way up in Forbes rich list, his wealth has trippled in a year! He is a 26-year-old Harvard dropout with a quirky personality who likes to admit that he's 'awkward' and has insulted his own customers calling them "Dumb f*cks." 'Zuck', known to his friends, has always kept a low profile. He lives in a rented house in Silicon Valley with his college sweetheart, Priscilla Chan. Ironically, facebook was originally born in his Harvard dorm, just six years ago and is now worth $23bn. Facebook is incredibly popular these days, even a Hollywood movie called 'The Social Network' has been created. It portrays the Facebook founder as an insecure social climber who brutally cuts loose friends who collaborated in the venture's early days, by screenwriter Aaron Sorkin. The comment that Zuckerberg said about his customers, was leaked onto the internet recently which caused a large uproar and several problems for him. From what Zuckerberg has said to the public, it seems he has grown up a lot since his insults and arrogance, and has apologised to his customers. "If you're going to go on to build a service that is influential and that a lot of people rely on, you need to be mature, right?"
