Zuckerberg’s $100 Million Oprah Moment

Despite scuttlebutt that Zuckerberg donated the grand sum in order to balance an unflattering portrait of him in the newly released film "The Social Network," Winfrey and Zuckerberg went to great lengths dispel the PR stunt angle.

Winfrey said Zuckerberg initially insisted on making the donation anonymously. When Winfrey asked about the timing of the donation to coincide with the film's opening, Zuckerberg laughed it off.

"It's a movie. It's fun. A lot of it is fiction," he said. "This is my life so I know it's not that dramatic."

A Westchester County native, he lives in California and is America’s second-youngest self-made billionaire with a worth of $6.9 Billion, according to Forbes. He ranked No. 35 in the Forbes 400 list, released Wednesday, and passed Apple CEO Steve Jobs ($6.1 billion net worth).
