Mark Zuckerberg

Before he became the CEO of the social media giant Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg was just a simple, young man in White Plains, New York, who loved playing with his computer. During the 1990s, his father taught him BASIC Programming and eventually hired David Newman, a software developer to privately tutor him. In his Harvard days, he and classmates Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes launched thefacebook.com. To give all his attention to this new website, Zuckerberg dropped out. Although he didn’t finish his degree, everything still worked out for him.

Now, the chief executive officer of Facebook is known as one of the richest persons on the planet. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Zuckerberg’s fortune is valued at $125 billion. Personally speaking, he has been married to Priscilla Chan since 2012 and already has two children with her, Maxima and August.
