Facebook的聯(lián)合創(chuàng)始人馬克·扎克伯格有望超越沃倫·巴菲特，登上全球財富榜第三位。

扎克伯格相較于伯克希爾-哈撒韋（Berkshire Hathaway Inc.）的董事長要年輕逾半世紀(jì)。Facebook此前深陷泄密事件，股票下跌18%，擺脫危機后，扎克伯格身價今年上漲85億美元，達到813億美元。彭博億萬富豪指數(shù)（Bloomberg Billionaires Index）顯示，F(xiàn)acebook股價從3月27日152.22美元的收盤低位一躍上升至上周三上午9：45紐約報出的201.45美元的歷史新高，使他與巴菲特之間的差距縮短至7.25億美元。

Facebook股價回升也惠及企業(yè)內(nèi)其他成員：首席運營官謝麗爾·桑德伯格目前身價18億美元，首席技術(shù)官邁克爾·施洛普夫所持的0.05%的股份價值約為2.24億美元。

而34歲的扎克伯格還落后于世界首富杰夫·貝佐斯——亞馬遜（Amazon.com Inc.）創(chuàng)始人、截至上周二擁有1436億美元財富；以及比爾·蓋茨——微軟（MicrosoftCorp）聯(lián)合創(chuàng)始人，擁有927億美元財富。彭博此項指數(shù)列出全球個人財富500強，并于每個紐約交易日收盤后更新。

87歲的巴菲特是曾經(jīng)的世界首富，2006年起熱忱從事慈善事業(yè)，致使排名有所下滑。他已捐出伯克希爾-哈撒韋2.9億股B類股票，其中多數(shù)捐獻給了蓋茨的基金會。根據(jù)彭博社匯編的數(shù)據(jù)，上述股票如今價值可達500億美元以上。扎克伯格曾許諾在有生之年捐獻出他在Facebook個人所持股份的99%。（財富中文網(wǎng)）

Facebook Inc. co-founder Mark Zuckerberg is poised to leapfrog Warren Buffett to become the world’s third-richest person.

Zuckerberg, more than a half-century younger than the Berkshire HathawayInc. chairman, is now worth $81.3 billion, gaining $8.5 billion this year as Facebook shook off a data-privacy crisis that caused its stock to tumble 18 percent. Its rebound from a closing low of $152.22 on March 27 to a record $201.45 at 9:45 a.m. last Wednesday in New York narrowed the gap with Buffett to $725 million, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

The recovery in Facebook shares has rewarded other insiders as well, including Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg, who’s now worth $1.8 billion, and Chief Technology Officer Michael Schroepfer, whose 0.05 percent holding is valued at $224 million.

Zuckerberg, 34, also trails Amazon.com Inc. founder Jeff Bezos, the world’s richest person with a $143.6 billion fortune through last Tuesday, and MicrosoftCorp. co-founder Bill Gates, with $92.7 billion. The Bloomberg index ranks the world’s 500 richest people and is updated after the close of each trading day in New York.

Buffett, 87, once the world’s wealthiest person, is sliding in the ranking thanks to his charitable giving, which he kicked off in earnest in 2006. He’s donated about 290 million Berkshire Hathaway Class B shares to charities, most of it to Gates’s foundation. Those shares are now worth more than $50 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Zuckerberg has pledged to give away 99 percent of his Facebook stock in his lifetime.
