Facebook set to make graffiti artist multi-millionaire

By: Natasha Burling | Latest International News | Friday February 3 2012 10:46

 

An American graffiti artist is set to become a multi-millionaire once Facebook stocks are put up for sale.

He's one of 3,000 people who'll become a lot wealthier following the stock market float.

US correspondent Richard Arnold says David Cho opted for Facebook shares as payment for murals on the company's premises seven years ago.

"So that's what he did and the stock he was given now is estimated at $200 million worth once Facebook shares being to be traded publically later this year," he told Newstalk ZB's Mike Hosking.

Richard Arnold says David Cho has been seen recently partying with scantily-clad women and has published an obscenity laden book with his artwork.
