Mark Zuckerberg: The Story
Mark Elliot Zuckerberg was born on May 14, 1984, in White Plains, New York. He was raised in a well-educated family in the nearby village of Dobbs Ferry. He was one of the best students of Ardsley High School, and later of Phillips Exeter Academy. Zuckerberg was interested in computers since an early age and he started writing software in middle school. He enjoyed developing different computer programs from communication tools to games. Soon, Mark Zuckerberg’s net worth started going up.
The young talent started working for the Intelligent Media Group to build the Synapse Media Player, a device that uses machine learning to learn the listening habits of the user. By the time he started attending Harvard, Zuckerberg was already established as a programming genius. During his sophomore year, he built a program, called CourseMatch, intended to help students choose their course classes based on other students’ choices. Afterwards, he developed the Facemash program, which let students select the best-looking person comparing two pictures. Although the program became incredibly popular, the class administration considered it inappropriate and shut it down.’
Considering Zuckerberg’s popularity, three Harvard seniors asked him to work on an idea for a social network site called Harvard Connection, intended to be a dating site. Initially, Mark agreed to help them, but soon he started developing his own social network site. In 2004, he launched Facebook, as a site that allows users to create profiles, upload photos, and communicate with other users.
The first big investment that Zuckerberg received came from one of the PayPal founders. He invested $500,000, after which the project began to expand rapidly. By the end of the year, Facebook had 1 million users. The enterprise received a $12.7 million investment from Accel Partners and another $5.5 million from Greylock Partners. At first, the platform functioned only for the Harvard students, but soon it became accessible for all USA universities and educational institutions. The social network had 5.5 million users by the end of 2005. However, the interest for Facebook grew rapidly, so Zuckerberg made it open for public registration. From then on, Facebook started making history, attracting more and more users each day. Mark Zuckerberg’s net worth grew proportionally with the platform’s success.
In 2007, Microsoft acquired 1.6% of the Facebook stakes for $240 million, leading to a $15 billion total value of the platform. Mark Zuckerberg’s net worth in 2007 was estimated at $1.5 billion and he became the world’s youngest billionaire. The Facebook CEO continuously worked on improving the platform, introducing new and better features. After surviving some financial troubles, the net worth of Mark Zuckerberg continued going up and reached $2 billion in 2009. In the next year, Time magazine named him Person of the Year while Vanity Fair placed him at number one on their New Establishment list. Mark Zuckerberg’s net worth was estimated at $4 billion in 2010.
Facebook had his first initial public offering in 2012, raising $16 billion. This became the biggest IPO in history and Zuckerberg still holds more than a quarter of its stock and 57% control of the voting shares. The Facebook CEO proved to be a great strategist, acquiring the photo-sharing app Instagram for $1 billion in the same year. Mark Zuckerberg’s net worth skyrocketed after this deal and his fortune was put at $17.5 billion.
As Facebook continued to dominate the social media landscape, Zuckerberg’s annual salary jumped from $770,000 to $1 billion. In 2014, he purchased the VR hardware Oculus Rift for $2 billion and WhatsApp for $22 billion. These proved to be savvy moves and, in return, the net worth of Mark Zuckerberg went up. As of May, a Facebook share is worth $150 and Zuckerberg’s fortune is estimated at $75.7 billion, making him the fourth richest person in the world.

Over the last 15 years we have grown together, both in spirit as soul mates and sexually. At 42 I’m older and have certainly had more experience. She is trusting and open minded, most new things she has tried with me, she has enjoyed and gone on to develop. Sex indoors, sex outdoors, making love, fucking like animals, some rough play, dressing up, we’ve come a long way together. But recently things had gone off the boil, the UK covid lockdown didn’t help, Stacey, me and the kids were cooped up together for a long period, limit privacy and working from home consuming us, probably made worse for me as my masturbating opportunities were also reduced.
One week Stacey had played on the Monday and was due to play again on the Wednesday, going back to the signals I usually read before sex, she showered before bed on Tuesday night, Stacey came to bed smelling lovely and me waiting in bed with a hard on in anticipation, however when I made an advance she said not tonight, I’m tired. This not only frustrated me, but got me thinking ‘wow, she always responds to me in the same circumstances’, the following day she was pick up for golf, Amy picks her up so I then have our car to ferry the kids about. Whilst Stacey was out golfing, I took the kids to the store to choose what they wanted for dinner. I bumped into Amy’s mum, we made a bit of small talk, before she said ‘I’m glad Stacey hasn’t had to miss her golf?’ and ‘that it was nice that Gary had something to take his mind of his recent separation’.When I looked quizzical, she explained what with Amy isolating at home because of covid, it was good that the other could still play. I nodded, smiled politely and we parted.
Stacey (my wife) and myself had a good sex life, but after 15 years it became a little predictable. Usually driven by me, I knew the signals, the main signal being Stacey going up for a shower before bed. The sex itself was always good, sometimes great as we both know what makes each other tick and cum. I still find Stacey attractive, she’s 5’7” and although at 36 she has never shed the baby weight of having a couple of kids, her exercise routine still keeps her bum pert and large tits firm.
As the lockdown restrictions were eased and certain sports and exercises were allowed again, I got out walking and kayaking, whereas Stacey got back on the golf course at every opportunity, where she is very accomplished (playing off a handicap of 5). She played 2 or 3 times a week with her friend Amy, who roped her into entering a mixed completion. Stacey eagerly told me about the comp coming up in 6 months and that she would be playing with Gary and Tony. Tony was new to me, an average player and someone making the numbers up. Gary I knew from way back, an excellent golfer and a bit of a ladies man. Despite knowing this, I didn’t say anything, I’m not the jealous type and have never had cause to be. Of the 2-3 rounds a week, Stacey and Amy played, Gary and Tony joined them, but again as they were playing as a 4, I didn’t worry unduly.
As I leant down I simultaneously thrust into her and kissed her, I whispered in her ear that I cannot believe she let them fuck and cum in her and demanded that she lick every trace of the two men off me. “What, no, no, no, not two, it was just Gary, what do you think . . .” Her sentence was cut short by me pushing her legs down back to the bed, making her thong stretch from side to side of her face gagging her. “JUST GARY” I said “you dirty fucking slut”, as I held her there in that position, I pistoned into her furiously, using my legs, hips and bodyweight, Stacey whimpered and muffled encouragement, after a couple of minutes she was shaking through an orgasm, before tapping me vigorously on my hip, I released her from being pinned. She immediately began talking “that was amazing, the best”. I hooked her legs over my shoulders and carried on driving into her, using my now free hands to squeeze her tits and pinch her nipples. “ I want YOUR cum” and “I’m sorry, I really am, I love you” I cut her off again, this time by pulling her panties off and gagging her with them. Wow they were wet, in hindsight I should have wrung them out over the dirty bitch.
I then started to wonder why Stacey hadn’t told me and began to think things, I got myself in a mess wondering if Stacey was having an affair, but was able to rationalise things and put my thoughts down to petty jealousy, after all Tony was there to cock block Gary. Strangely though, with the mix of emotions I’d been feeling, I was quite turned on by my dirty mind wrongly thinking what my wife was up to. With my dirty mind getting the better of me, I shut myself away from the kids in the bathroom and wanked myself furiously at the thought my wife being fucked o the golf course by Gary, Tony even joined my fantasy at one point as I imagined her being bent over in the woods by both men, using her and leaving her full of cum. I came buckets myself at the thought. Immediately afterwards I was overcome by guilt and anger at myself for being turned on by such thoughts. I pushed all that to the back of my mind and went downstairs, to prep the kids evening dinner, which I served before jumping in the shower upstairs in the en-suite.
