Facebook founder donates $100 million

Mark Zuckerberg, the 26-year-old co-founder and chief executive of Facebook, is planning on donating $100 million to Newark, New Jersey schools.  And if you're thinking, "holy shit that's a lot of money!", the guy is worth $6.9 billion (6.8 now...) sooo... not to him!





CNN reports the Harvard dropout (had to throw that in there) doesn't have any personal ties to Newark, but the district has one of the worst public school systems in America.  Also, one of the shittiest airports.  Anyway, ZuckerFace is expected to make the official announcement on Oprah tomorrow, who is all about saving schools this season like she was all about not texting and driving last season...



Skeptics are questioning the timing of the donation though, as it is daaaangerously close to the release of The Social Network, a biopic depicting the creation of Facebook which apparently doesn't portray Zuckerberg very nicely...  Yeah, and it also comes the same day Facebook crashed worldwide!  Coincidence?  I think not...



And finally, a random fact... Mark Zuckerberg is only the 35th richest person in the United States and 212th in the word!  WHAT THE FUCK.  6.9 billion doesn't even crack the Top 10?  There needs to be a dislike button for that shit.
