The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook - A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius and Betrayal


[Image: The_Accidental_Billionaires.jpg]


The high-energy tale of how two socially awkward Ivy Leaguers, trying
to increase their chances with the opposite sex, ended up creating
Facebook. Eduardo Saverin and Mark Zuckerberg were Harvard
undergraduates and best friends–outsiders at a school filled with
polished prep-school grads and long-time legacies.

They shared both academic brilliance in math and a geeky awkwardness with
women. Eduardo figured their ticket to social acceptance–and sexual success–was
getting invited to join one of the university’s Final Clubs, a constellation of
elite societies that had groomed generations of the most powerful men in the world
and ranked on top of the inflexible hierarchy at Harvard. Mark, with less of an
interest in what the campus alpha males thought of him, happened to be a
computer genius of the first order. Which he used to find a more direct route to social
stardom: one lonely night, Mark hacked into the university's computer
system, creating a ratable database of all the female students on
campus–and subsequently crashing the university's servers and nearly
getting himself kicked out of school.

In that moment, in his Harvard dorm room, the framework for Facebook was born.
What followed–a real-life adventure filled with slick venture capitalists, stunning
women, and six-foot-five-inch identical-twin Olympic rowers–makes for
one of the most entertaining and compelling books of the year. Before
long, Eduardo’s and Mark’s different ideas about Facebook created in
their relationship faint cracks, which soon spiraled into out-and-out
warfare. The collegiate exuberance that marked their collaboration fell
prey to the adult world of lawyers and money.

The great irony is that while Facebook succeeded by bringing people together,
its very success tore two best friends apart. The Accidental Billionaires is a
compulsively readable story of innocence lost–and of the unusual
creation of a company that has revolutionized the way hundreds of
millions of people relate to one another.
