No, he's got to be more careful than that about his image.

My wife is a "soccer mom" with 2 kids. The mommies do 40 minutes a day on Facebook. If a celeb uses the "N word" the mommies spread that like wildfire, and that person is "out".

Rightly or wrongly, if Zuckerburg is seen abusively cashing out a billion bucks, they *will* go someplace else. Their discomfort tolerance for that sort of thing is near zero.

Where will they go? Myspace????

I don't think any rational person is going to see a CEO cash in some stock and then make a moral decision that the company is not tolerable anymore. The dude created the most valuable IPO in years and he is not allowed to reap some of the rewards? How can that be seen as abusive?

Remember this headline from Obama?


Obama: “I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money”

Just my opinion, any yes, we know what they say about opinions... However, Facebook has to be one of the biggest wastes of time, people go there to fight with each other, the narcissists rum rampant there, infidelity and Facebook go hand-in-hand (oh yes, I know a divorce attorney who LOVES Facebook as its made him wealthier!), etc., I could go on...

Just glad I deleted divorce book from my life after a month of it coming out. Now I laugh to myself watching people waste away on that piece of garbage site.

Prediction: fartbook will be going the same way as the leisure suit, and station wagon sooner than later. Those who bought those shares on pure emotion have proven to be perfect examples of sheeple...
