Mark Zuckerman started out from humble beginnings with huge dreams of success. He has achieved that success and more- and has as close to the power to turn things to gold as one could get. The social networking site, Facebook, has grown beyond his dreams- but at a cost. He has definitely gained some enemies and because his Facebook empire is so popular and valuable- he is depicted as an arrogant and selfish individual in various media outlets.
Zuckerberg has many similarities to Midas- they both got what they wished for- but it was not what they thought it would be. Midas could not eat because of his ability to turn anything he touched into gold. Zuckerman cannot eat in public because of his astoundingly sucessful company. Both men are considered to be arrogant- Midas is always depicted that way in the myths and the movie The Social Network shows Zuckerberg to be foolish and arrogant.
