For comparison, Gen X had 9% of the wealth, and Boomers had 21%. The largest generation in history did everything they were told, became the most educated generation, and now they’re the poorest.

Here are the official numbers from the fed for millennial wealth

Zuckerburg owns a very large amount of Facebook stock, and he sells it on a pre-determined, fixed, schedule. The current amount of stock he has is around $80 billion.

To find out how much he’s sold on what schedule, the easiest answer is Yahoo Meta, insider transactions: https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/META/insider-transactions?p=META

You can also look at the their 2022 proxy report official in Meta SEC filings https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1326801/000132680122000043/meta2022definitiveproxysta.htm

Zuckerburg has 93,675,733 vested shares, 831,706 class A shares, and 349,745,790 class B shares a total of 350,577,496 shares (we don’t care about voting rights, just valuation). At today’s market value, those shares are worth $296.73 each (October 30, 2023). We multiple those numbers together and get $104,026,860,388.08.

So, that rounds to $104 billion dollars in Meta stock.

Finally, he controls additional shares via Chan Zuckerberg foundation, Mark Zuckerberg Trust, and assorted other groups.

    I wonder what Gen-Z’s gonna be like. No companies founded by my generation so far

      Founding a company is easy: Do you have $150? You too can own a Florida corporation today (literally, within minutes).

      I’m sure there’s tens of thousands of LLCs and S corporations owned by Gen Z. They’re just things like lawn care services, handyman, independent contractors, etc.

      They may not be huge or popular or famous but I guarantee that there’s a lot of them. Because there’s far too many jobs that require you have a registered business and thousands of young people have these jobs.

          Wrong! Zillions of Amazon delivery drivers are underpaid independent contractors with their own corporations.

          What year do you think this is? These days corporations are good at exploiting FTE workers, workers who own their own business, and other, smaller corporations.

        Hmm true, just no flashy multi billion dollar startups so far (we’re all probably still too inexperienced for that)
