Nigerians we should not think about ourselves only, but others around us, that's why we do lack knowledge. |

lanre316:I used the word POOR not from my own perspective but from the OP perspective. He tried to compare his fortune with others like Facebook owner. Thereby, saying that he's broke gave complete different meaning to his message. |

Lorhdany:At the rate Nigerian bloggers are going, Google will stop approving AdSense for them so they can look for something else meaningful to do other than embellishing fact. |

The Internet invention can not be attributed to any single person. This technology was delivered at the right time in space to humans so we can document our entire memories and history prior to what is to come. We are being changed. |

Broke in what sense? This is someone that's fulfilled.
I don't like the way most Nigerian bloggers do their thing. |

Then why Facebook didn't invent it for free |
Re: Meet The Man Who Invented The Internet For Free, Now He Is Broke by lanre316: 12:27pm On Dec 28, 2017 |
Adiscamanja: Facebook was invented for free. They started making advertisement money on it after many years when it has become successful. If they had started charging money on it from the start, it won't be successful as it is. I suggest you watch the movie: Social Network. Especially the part where the Napster guy advised Mark Zuckerberg against monetizing Facebook early on. Mark was wise to heed his advice. And it's a true story made into a film. Now Tim is not a businessman. His primary motive is not to become a billionaire. He's a lecturer. His motive is to conduct research and make discoveries that will add up to the knowledge base of their field and also help mankind, unlike Nigerian lecturers that only teach and teach without adding any new knowledge to their field. The man achieved his goal. And he should be respected and appreciated. 2 Likes |

TechEnthusiast: That's not why. He couldn't put price on the WWW because it was an invention and nobody would want to pay for it. There were other ways for him to earn from it though which he did. |
