Shows you how out of the loop I am about Facebook, I didn't even know who this was

Dustin Moskovitz has a 5% stake in Facebook, which for an $85 billion company would equate to $4.25 billion. That's around $157 million for every year of his life.

(if I understand it right, he only will pay 15% tax on that - and Forbes says he has 7.6% stake, not 5%)

In the movie, he was the guy trying to figure out if that chick was single or not, giving Zuckerberg the inspiration to add relationship status to Facebook.
Unfortunately I am at least two years behind on movie releases, not even sure I'd see that film anyway though.
