Mark Zuckerberg could be ending the year about three-fourths as rich as he was coming into it.
Mired in controversy throughout the year, Zuckerberg’s net worth started at around $75 billion on January 2, and he’s set to finish at least $15 billion less when the year comes to a close — a greater loss than*any of the other 499richest people in the world.
The Facebook founder’s 13% stake in the company makes up almost all of his fortune. Accusations of the platform’s role in*Russian election interference*and*the mass genocide in Rohingya*put a closer eye on Facebook, and the unraveling revelations of data breaches and unsavory practices at the executive level that followed led to a number of stock price drops. As the person holding the reins for the entire operation, Zuckerberg has been held accountable personally and — as the chart below shows — financially.
