David Choe

In 2005, Sean Parker hired graffiti artist/graphic novelist David Choe to paint sexual murals on the walls of Facebook's first offices in Palo Alto.  Offered to be paid in cash or stock, the artist chose very wisely.  When the company goes public this year, Choe is expected to earn more than Sotheby’s attracted for its record-breaking $200.7 million auction in 2008 for work by Damien Hirst. Wow!
