The Fight for Facebook

Mark Zuckerberg, a 35 year-old Harvard graduate, is one of the richest men in the world. How? Facebook. Originally a college online photo directory, Facebook has travelled all over the world and has made Zuckerberg's personal wealth a whopping $13.5 billion! His riches came with a price, though; many people have sued for ownership of Facebook. This, along with the popular blockbuster The Social Network, has given Zuckerburg a bad reputation.

We sometimes forget that Zuckerburg created Facebook in college, and that everybody does crazy things at that age. I think the reason behind picking on him was because of his success; people want to find a way to steal his riches. The Social Network gives Zuckerburg a "snide and sarcastic in a cruel way" personality. All this has weighed down on Zuckerburg's shoulders, yet he just brushed it off and kept on growing.

Zuckerburg did what he thought was the right thing, even if others didn't agree. He has made mistakes, but he didn't let it get in the way of his work. Zuckerburg has pushed through all the bullying and has made it through the maze with money to prove it. You don't have to like Zuckerburg or agree with him, but you have to admit, he has found a way to the top.
