Zuckerberg's MMA Reinvention

A story about how Mark Zuckerberg had a complete personal transformation in 2023, similar to how some kids change dramatically over a summer break in high school.

"You know how in high school, there's always that one kid who leaves for summer and gets that second puberty bump? They get an extra 4 inches of height, start growing facial hair, start working out because their cousin taught them, pick up a hobby, learn guitar or MMA, start dressing differently, and you hear rumors they hooked up with a college girl. Then they come back and they're just a whole new guy.

Mark Zuckerberg pulled a Greg this year. His stock is up 5,500% in the last 24 months. He's gained $100 billion in net worth, becoming the 3rd richest man in the world. But more than that, he found a hobby he loves - MMA, jujitsu, striking - and got into tremendous shape. He's ripped now.

He's playing the world's most competitive game in AI, where he had a judo flip by open sourcing their models to compete in the market. He went from a robot to a cool guy, with a cool haircut and style upgrade. He's still with his college sweetheart, has his daughters, and appears to be a great dad.

He's just had this really strong floor game where he covered all the bases of what I consider to be a really good life. He's doing what he loves both on and off the court."
