Graffiti artist David Choe was hired in 2005 to paint murals at Facebook’s new headquarters. Instead of taking a cash payment, Choe chose to be compensated in company shares, even though he thought Facebook was a “ridiculous” idea. When Facebook went public in 2012, those shares became worth around $200 million, making Choe extremely wealthy. In this clip, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg paints a small part of one of the murals, which Choe quickly incorporates back into a larger work. | Real lo

In 2005, graffiti artist David Choe was hired to paint murals at Facebook’s office. He was offered $60,000 in cash or the same amount in stock.

When Facebook went public in 2012, his shares were worth nearly $200 million, making it one of the biggest windfalls for an artist in startup history.
