The Facebook IPO: What could you buy?

Presented by Betterment A Better Way To Invest the facebook IPO Jealous of the soon-to-be millionaire Facebook employees? Let's daydream about what they could do... The Stats: %2435. $35 28 183,300 per projected fırst day peak average # of stock options per employee $5,367,024 average projected value for each Facebook employee The Spoils: Give each of your Facebook friends $28k (and still have $28k left for you!) Buy 5 homes in San Francisco (OR buy 4 homes and 206 pet tigers to live with!) Buy 14 Lamborghini Aventadors Put 38 18-year-olds through college at a private university Stay on Sir Richard Branson's private Caribbean island for 101 nights (along with 27 of your friends!) Hire Lady Gaga to perform at your wedding (and every night at dinner for the next 4.5 months) Outfit 75% of U.S. Software Engineers with a Zuckerberg-style hoodie. Not So Ridiculous: GInvest it! in the broad market portfolio The original $5.3 million could become. $24.3million At a return of 7.86%, compounded annually for 20 years. Presented by ABetterment A Better Way To Invest Projected return of 7.86% is based on Betterment LLC's recommended portfolios and, for periods that pre-date the issuance of funds in our current recommended portfolios, broad market indexes from 1926-2011 for stocks and 1942-2011 for bonds. Projected returns are not based on returns of actual Betterment customers. Past performance is not a guarantee of tuture success, and in fact volatility means that returns in any period may be far above or below those previous period. Investments at Betterment may lose value. Betterment is unable to predict or forecast market fluctuations or other uncertainties that may affect the value of any investment. Madel projections are inherently limited in that they do not represent actual trading nor material economic or market factors that might have had an impact on Betterment LLC's advice. Projected returns account for the reinvestment of dividends as well as investment fees Statistics based on a projected opening price of $31.50 per share, an average first day jump of 12%, 2.35 bilion shares outstanding, 183,300 options per facebook employee, and a strike price of $6 per option. http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/05/03/facebook-to-set-target-after-market-close/ http://www.usatoday.com/money/perf/columnist/krantz/2011-06-07-getting-in-on-big-ipo-gains_n.htm http://blog.seattlepi.com/techchron/2012/01/27/report-facebook-going-public-on-nyse-at-38-40-per-share/ http://www.quara.com/How-much-Facebook-stock-does-the-average-Facebook-employee-own http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2072204/Facebook-IPO-create-1-000-millionaires-companys-rank-file.html https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-data-team/anatomy-of-facebook/10150388519243859 http://www.trulia.com/real_estate/San_Francisco-California/ http://bigcatrescue.org/2011/buy-a-big-cat http://autos.yahoo.com/lamborghini/ http://www.usnews.co http://www.cnn.comcocareevaoe/13/renting private.island/index hte http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/music-news/6075953/Rolling-Stones-named-most-expensive wedding-act.html http://www.bls.gov/ooh/Computer-and-Information-Technology/Software-developers.htm http://www.theadairgroup.com/bulk-hoodies.html Sources 'articles/2010/08/24/the-average-cost-of-a-us-college-education Image Credits: Flickr user 401k http://www.flickr.com/photos/68751915@NO5/6355388579/ Flickr user Salim Virji http://www.flickr.com/photos/salim/402620871/ Flickr user Keith Roper http://www.flickr.com/photos/keithroper/5185262341/ Flickr user Autoviva.com http://www.flickr.com/photos/autovivacom/5488245669/ Flickr user pbinder http://www.filickr.com/photos/pbinder/3580200107/ Virgin Limited Edition http://www.neckerisland.virgin.com/ Flickr user John Robert Charlton http://www.flickr.com/photos/nurbityburbity/4438467441/ Wikimedia Commons http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:MarkZuckerbergjpg O 2012 Betterment LLC.
