How about building one of the largest companies in the world? Would others be able to do that if they had that idea as a 19-year-old? Let's not reduce all his accomplishments to a single idea. Ideas don't matter, execution matters.
If building Facebook isn't enough evidence of success for you, I don't know what is. Pretty sure most people with the same idea could not have turned it into what Facebook is today. Also, Facebook isn't just one idea - it's many ideas.
It's enough evidence of one success. But "Zuck is pretty successful at things he wants to do" sounds like he has more than one success. I'm just asking what those other things are.
You are exposing your lack of knowledge on what it means to run a multinational corporation. It isn't one lucky choice, it is strategy and execution over the long term. This is the same for any successful company.
In the sense of the point I'm addressing, yes. "Zuck is pretty successful at things he wants to do." Facebook is a thing he wanted to do. It was a success. (And a big one, but just because an elephant is very large for an animal means that it counts as 3 animals.) I just want to know what the other things are.
Scroll up. I didn't say Zuckerberg wasn't successful. Indeed, I've been quite clear that Facebook was one very big success.
And for what it's worth, Einstein did a lot more than one thing. Off the top of my head, Einstein's annus mirabilis had 4 papers that were all major accomplishments, including the E=mc² equation popularly associated with him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annus_Mirabilis_papers
His work on relativity came later. As did a fair bit of other work, that I'm less familiar with but that I could easily look up and provide sources for.
And that's the kind of list I'm looking for here. People have claimed that he has other successes. I'm asking what they are. I've now given you the kind of list I wanted for Einstein, and I've given it elsewhere in this discussion for Steve Jobs. So will you give me that list for Zuckerberg? Because as far as I know it has one thing on it: Facebook.
Lol...you want him to have built more than one of the most successful businesses in history? It isn't one idea that got him here.. Everyone's a critic.
