      The hoodie is to Zucks what the turtleneck was to Jobs, an ugly fashion statement to relate to the masses and separate them from their backers whom may also be bilkers of billions themselves.

          Good idea. That way when the zombie appocolypse happens you can cash out and move to the Caribean ;P But seriously. Zuckerberg is no genius. He is just a lucky somewhat smart guy.

          Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

            All/most successful business man/woman are not genius, they are just smart and lucky. most geniuses are inept in business.

                Right, but after the applocolypse starts the islands will be the place to be... So long as the infestation is controlled. If not we will just have to wait for the zombies to starve out. From what I hear that shouldn't be too long ;P (j/k)

                  Very true. But all the more reason to spruce up a little bit. To the new investors he is just like a lotto winner. He is not part of the elite club yet. If he holds onto his billions for a decade or so then he can sport what ever style he wants. Until then he should caress their egos or feel their rath. If they have little faith in him he will soon be a "has been" as the first smarter person that gets the chance will likely elephant him out of every penny. And frankly it is highly likely to happen soon IMO.

                    The analyst was upset that Zuckerberg didn't wear the appopriate shade of lipstick to kiss Wall Street's ass. To my mind, this isn't a bad thing. The more Wall Streeters who die off from myocardial infarction due to a tie being too tight(*), the better. (*) Compress the carotid artery, no?

                      It depends on the islands and how many people. Islands aren't going to sustain a large population without outside assistance. And you have no place to go if things go wrong.

                        I don't trust people in suits - they're hiding something. Pretty soon, I won't trust people in hoodies either. :)
