Re: David Choe: millionaire! "Although Mr Choe reportedly considered the idea of Facebook ‘ridiculous and pointless’ at the time of his painting, he took the stock when offered the option, reported the New York Times." Hahah. Congrats David!

Re: David Choe: millionaire! The morning paper said it could be as much as 200 million.

Re: David Choe: millionaire! I still don't get how facebook is that different from friendster or myspace, which came before it. Sure it has more bleeps and whistles, but also very invasive spyware. So glad that despite the many many people that ask me to get on it, I keep holding out refusing to.
Good for this guy though! Must be nice to wake up 200 million richer.

Re: David Choe: millionaire! Especially since the hype will be at a fever pitch right now.
David Choe seems like a really nice guy, I loved watching his VBS thumbs up series.

Re: David Choe: millionaire! I met him a few times in college through a class I took with Barron Storey. He is a really cool guy, super relaxed, humble, and has great stories.

Re: David Choe: millionaire! Dave is a great guy. Great artist also. I have met him a few times. He does have some great stories. I like to ask him to tell me a train hopping story when I see him.

Re: David Choe: millionaire! His intro to Jeff Soto's book Storm Clouds is seriously great. Get the book just for it.

Re: David Choe: millionaire! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbC6DPJvQasI like that "do whatever you want..." and then come in and say that it's not what you thought it was going to be. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2t_xGYovD8&feature=relatedThe fan is almost in time with the beat.
