Now worth a whopping ($6.98B). Mark Zuckerberg is also the youngest billionaire in the world. His wealth has, of course, accumulated from the world's most popular social networking website Facebook.  

Like most other billionaires, Zuckerberg is a drop-out (from the prestigious Harvard University). He came up with Facebook in his days at Philips Exeter Academy when the academy annual published a book which featured headshot photos of students, faculty and staff. This book itself was known as the "Facebook" among the Academy.
Other notable rich men belonging to Silicon Valley include Microsoft founder Bill Gates (who is still at the top with $54B), Microsoft CEO Steve Baller (13.1B), Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin (at $15B) and Dell founder Michael Dell ($14B).

As Facebook continues to grow in popularity, it shouldn't be too hard for Zuckerberg to beat Gates one day. But still, whatever anyone anywhere might do, they never will be able to beat Gates record of once being a friggin' centi-bilionaire. Thats like $100 billion dude! What are you gonna do with all this money? Buy Jupiter? (Bill Gates has donated over $28B).
