Facebook would not EXIST if Zuckerberg would have spent 6 more years in the draining rat trap that is academia. He wouldn't have been able to move to the valley, get funded by Thiel, and receive REAL WORLD business experience. Its ironic that some asshole with a degree is playing backseat driver to Mark Zuckerberg, who is STILL one of the wealthiest men in the world. MBA's are for corporate assholes. If your career aspirations are to write crap articles for the Washington Post, go ahead, get your MBA.

The reason Facebook's IPO failed is because of lack of consumer confidence in the company itself. The majority of IPO's throughout history have been exponentially over valued. I wouldn't touch ANY IPO with a ten foot pole. Let alone a company whose business model is based on invasive, ineffective, and overpriced advertising.
