David Choe, the artist who painted the Facebook Incorporation building in 2005, was not paid in cash.
Sean Parker, president of Facebook at the time, asked Choe to paint his famous murals on the office walls for $60,000 or company stock.
Choe chose the stock, and when Facebook, started by Mark Zuckerberg in his Harvard dorm room, announced its IPO this month, or initial public offerings of stock, to raise $5 billion, Choe made an estimated $200 million.
The murals are still in the Facebook offices today.
