Forbes.com recently submitted an article naming 20 of the nation’s youngest billionaires. Most of which happen to have a connection to social media or some type of online accomplishments. Four out of the Five Facebook founders made the list:
Mark Zukerberg- billionaire at age 24
Eduardo Saverin- age 29
Sean Parker- age 31
Dustin Moskovitz- age 27
Seven other young billionaires joined the list with connections to social media, online, etc such as YAHOO, LinkedIn, Zynga (Farmville), and Internet portals.
Investors such as Warren Buffett and John Arnold still dominate the list. They’ve seem to have made fortunes without re-inventing a social media. However, I’m sure they pay close attention to new networking sites, and may even have investments in a few.
And we can’t forget Bill Gates. He’s still going strong in Forbes Magazine. Now the rest of us just need to find out what these people are doing, and do it better!
