Some billionaires are focused on the heavens above while others prefer to toil the fields below.
Mark Zuckerberg, the founder and chief executive of Meta Platforms
META,
took to the Instagram service his company operates to reveal he is raising cows in Hawaii on what could be considered a fratboy’s diet of beer and nuts.
“Of all my projects, this is the most delicious,” he said.
Some on social media joked that at least he wasn’t raising llamas — a reference to the name of Meta’s artificial intelligence large language model that is a rival to ChatGPT.
He also received predictable blowback for the environmental impact of raising cattle. Cows account for some 4% of greenhouse gases.
Fellow billionaire Bill Gates has advocated developed countries move to entirely synthetic beef.
Zuckerberg can certainly afford his new hobby: Meta shares have surged 168% over the last 52 weeks. He is sixth on Bloomberg’s billionaire list with an estimated worth of $129 billion.
