As known as one of the founders of Facebook.Worth an estimated $54 billion, this 35 year-old's name evokes either love or hate depending on who you’re talking to.But despite your personal take on him, evolving the world of social media wasn’t his original agenda.The truth is, Zuckerberg almost ended up working at Microsoft.Mark was always creative.Some would say he was a born-inventor.Raised in suburban New York, his road to entrepreneurship began at age 12, when he created a messaging program called ZuckNet.In high school, he and a partner created a music app called ' Synapse 'Media Player.This would keep track of the listeners favorite music and make playlists based on their selections.When Microsoft got wind of this, they wished to purchase the app and hire Zuckerberg and co-creator Adam D’Angelo.Instead, the two opted to go a different route.They put the app out for free and went tocollege.Now there’s doubt that Mark would still have been a rich man had he gone with Microsoft.But he wouldn’t have gone on to Harvard Where he co-founded Facebook.And communication as we now know it today would not have existed.
