  • I wouldn't sell if I was still enjoying running the company. Mark Zuckerberg will never have to worry about money. $3 billion or $3 million... after a certain point it doesn't make much difference to me and being in total control at FB must be pretty fun.
  • Sell this sinking ship now

  • Sell! Sell! Sell!
  • The honeymoon won't last much longer (nor will the $15B valuation). Sell it.
  • Take out your statistics, crunch the numbers, pull out the projections, and make a decision based on that information. I'd say be objective on this type of decision, even if you are having fun. Just ask Yang about allowing emotion to affect these decisions.
  • Andy - so facebook is all about Zuckerberg having fun? Get me out now.
