Is going to be a $200 millionaire if everything goes right.

in response to making 200 million

“F*ck, have you had the dream where you ARE this guy?!? And then some kind of happy accident happens, and as you’re in the middle of this glorious car crash you stop to realize that there is actually no such thing as an accident, and no chance encounters, and that everything has a direct purpose? […] then I get up and see my picture on the cover of the New York Times and I find out that I’m the most highest paid decorator alive.”

Apparently, when David Choe was first asked to paint the first headquarters of Facebook in 2005 he thought it was just another gig – Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, made him a deal money or stock options. At first, Choe thought it was whatever because he thought Facebook would be worthless. THANK GOD he took the stocks! If everything goes well he could leave clicking his heels to a nice sum of about $200 million – sssuming he didn’t sell any stock, and that Facebook debuts at a $100 billion valuation, sources tell the Times.]

Find work by David Choe out here and here Walrustv walking thru Facebook’s new headquarters at Menlo Park, CA.

Below is the 2005 painting he did with Mr. Facebook
