MARK ZUCKERBERG IS STILL SAYING HE’S SORRY

Nice to see Mark Zuckerberg spiffed up in a navy suit and tie, appropriate to his position as CEO of Facebook. He was probably the most famous of the 50 or so CEO’s from the world’s biggest tech firms who showed up at the Tech For Good summit in Paris. French President Emmanuel Macron, who is very tech savvy, arranged the summit because he believes that with power comes social responsibility. He emphasized that he welcomes innovation but also regulation and working for the common good. As automation replaces jobs he wants employers to be responsible for retraining employees and focusing on the most at-risk segment of the population. Hopefully he planted some seeds of conscience…

Mark Zuckerberg Married

MARK ZUCKERBERG JUST BECAME OUR FAVORITE BILLIONAIRE

There’s something we can’t help but like about multi-billionaire Mark Zuckerberg. As wealthy as he is, Mark lives a relatively understated life (he lines up at the food truck at lunchtime with everyone else) and still has a powerful work ethic. He doesn’t flaunt his success and incredible wealth or isolate himself from society. He’s had the same equally brainy girlfriend, Priscilla Chan, for over nine years and they had a simple wedding this weekend. A hundred people – in his backyard – a ruby ring. No big fuss. Surprised guests thought they were invited to celebrate Priscilla’s graduation from medical school. We’re happy for them.

Facebook Fashion GQ Mark Zuckerberg Worst Dressed

MARK ZUCKERBERG PROBABLY DOESN’T EVEN READ GQ

GQ has come out with it’s Worst Dressed list and David Arquette is NOT at the top – the winner is Facebook mogul Mark Zuckerberg. He may be a tech genius but Mark still dresses like he’s on campus rushing to Biology class. We’ve never seen him in a suit – his classic attire is baggy jeans, a hoodie, and flip flops or Nike slides – worn with socks in the winter! GQ allows that nerds run the world, but their style begins and ends at The Gap.

House Mark Zuckerberg Real Estate

MARK ZUCKERBERG: IS THIS HOUSE WORTH SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS?

Facebook mogul Mark Zuckerberg has been living modestly in rental houses in his Palo Alto neighborhood, but it’s rumored that he decided to take the plunge and invest in real estate – he purchased his own home there. The Real Estalker believes that Mark paid 7 million dollars for this historic home in a posh neighborhood, built in 1903 and recently renovated. The house has 5 bedrooms and 5 baths in 5,617 sq ft. Frankly, we’re FLOORED by the price tag because it doesn’t LOOK like a 7 million dollar house to us, but maybe it’s just a not-so-flattering photo. Or maybe Mark likes having an unassuming looking house.

Doll Facebook Mark Zuckerberg

FACEBOOK MOGUL MARK ZUCKERBERG IS NOW A DOLL

Here’s the perfect gift for brainiac kids: the Mark Zuckerberg action figure doll. (For legal reasons the M.I.C store had to call it the Poking Inventor Action Figure) It’s 7 inches tall and features blank speech balloons that attach to the head. Of course, he’s appropriately attired in flip flops and a hoodie and sells for $70. Keep in mind, a media mogul action figure is more inspiring for kids than any cartoon character.

Billionaire Facebook Mark Zuckerberg Taco Stand

WHO’S THE GUY IN THE GAP T SHIRT EATING ON THE SIDEWALK? MARK ZUCKERBERG!

You never know who you’re going to run into at a taco stand in California. Nobody else in line paid any attention when Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg joined the line at a stand near his Palo Alto office, and quietly waited his turn. He ordered two chicken tacos with rice and tortilla chips and sat down with a friend in a shop doorway to eat his less that six dollar meal. Keep in mind, unpretentious Mark is the world’s youngest self-made billionaire, and Time magazine named him “Most Influential Man Of The Year”. (Mark’s dentist father remarked about the Time article: “It must have been a slow year.”)

Facebook Mark Zuckerberg Money Priscilla Chan Real Estate

MARK ZUCKERBERG ISN’T THROWING HIS MONEY AROUND

How the other half lives is always interesting – in both directions. Facebook mogul Mark Zuckerberg, who happens to be a billionaire seven times over, always surprises us. He recently gave up his modest rental home to move with his girlfriend Priscilla Chan into this newly renovated house in Palo Alto. The new house has 3800 sq ft, 5 bedrooms and 4 baths – and as far as we know – no media room. Supposedly he has top notch security but the home is not gated and it looks like you can see right in. He’s not cloistering himself away from the world and continues to walk to work.

"The Social Network" Billionaire Facebook Mark Zuckerberg Priscilla Chan Real Estate

FACEBOOK FOUNDER BILLIONAIRE MARK ZUCKERBERG LEADS AN UNPRETENTIOUS LIFE

“The Social Network” has created quite an image for Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, whether he likes it or not. We were surprised to learn that the 26 year old, who is supposedly worth SEVEN BILLION dollars, lives in this modest, 4 bedroom rental home located walking distance from Facebook headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif. (Above, he’s pictured with his longtime girlfriend Priscilla Chan.) When the weather gets cooler, we wonder if he’ll wear socks with his flip flops like his movie character did.

FORT ZUCKERBERG: THE HOUSE THAT FACEBOOK BUILT

Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg, 30, is not making any new friends in his San Francisco neighborhood. Mark and his wife Priscilla Chan are spending millions to enlarge and remodel a ten million dollar six bedroom “fixer- upper,” and neighbors are weary from the loud jackhammering, and 40 to 50 workers banging away on the house every day. The people next door have dubbed it “Fort Zuckerberg.” There are No Parking signs all over the street and neighbors have to park blocks away. Round the clock security people keep an eye on the proceedings. The whole remodel is expected to take 17 months total. And to think Mark used to live such a simple life…

Meghan Markle Money Prince Harry Security

MEGHAN AND HARRY: THE HIGH PRICE OF FAME

In their big interview with Oprah, we were surprised when Prince Harry and Meghan talked about how upsetting it was that the Royals had cut off their security, and now they had to pay for their own. In fact, Harry added that they had never thought about making deals with Netflix and Spotify until they realized how much they would have to pay for their own security. Chris Gardner at The Hollywood Reporter researched exactly what the cost might be for the runaway royals, and we were SHOCKED. It could easily be 10 million dollars a year, depending on their lifestyle! That’s what Facebook pays to protect Mark Zuckerberg and his family – of course they probably get a lot more threats. But Oprah’s interview stirred up plenty of divisive opinions about Harry and Meghan, so they probably DO need expensive protection.
