zuck the fuck is worth approx 229billion.

a 25mil fine is 0.01% of his net worth.

If your average yearly salary is 30,000, thats like paying a fine of 3 ~~00~~.

edit math hard thank you @[email protected]

ZuckFuck doesn't make his net worth each year. So let's compare it against US citizen net worth. I have stats from 2022

Average American new worth is ~$1,050,000 Median American net worth is ~$192,000

I hate zuck as much as you but it's important to be accurate and fair as possible when comparing statistics.

So it's like a fine of $19 if using median and $105 if using average. Still peanuts for a fine

300 would be 1% wouldn't it? It'd be like paying a fine of 3
