Portrait of a Young Zuckerberg
It is said that, as a child, Mark Zuckerberg got the idea for a “social network,’ from passing notes in class. Even at a young age, he saw major business opportunities in this.
In fact, Zuckerberg was an adept salesmen in other areas, too. For example, he always out-sold his fellow Scouts when it came time to hock chocolate bars. Nobody could figure out his secret.
He was, famously, an avid follower of student politics.
…and a notorious snitch.
Still, in the end, the local kids could not stop themselves from playing with him. After all, he always did have the best toys.
