His net worth is estimated to be US $74.2 billion as of November 2017, and in 2016 was ranked by Forbes as the fifth richest person in the world.
Zuckerberg launched Facebook from his University dormitory room on February 4, 2004. He was assisted by his college roommates and fellow Harvard students Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes. The group was set up initially to allow students to share research and tips on their homework. The group then introduced Facebook to other college campuses. Facebook expanded rapidly, and went worldwide reaching one billion users by 2012.
Since 2010, Time magazine has named Zuckerberg among the 100 wealthiest and most influential people in the world as a part of its Person of the Year award. In December 2016, Zuckerberg was ranked 10th on Forbes list of The World's Most Powerful People.
