Evan Spiegel — Billionaire at 25 (Snapchat)

Rejected $3B from Zuckerberg. IPO at $24B. Married Miranda Kerr.

Evan Spiegel became a billionaire at 25 after dropping out of Stanford three credits short and rejecting Mark Zuckerberg's $3 billion cash offer for Snapchat in 2013. Taking Snap public in 2017 at a $24 billion valuation made him the youngest billionaire CEO on a major exchange. Snap now has over 800 million monthly active users, and Spiegel lives in a $120 million Bel Air estate with Miranda Kerr. His rejection of a massive offer mirrors #1's move against Yahoo, but Spiegel's defiance was directed at the #1 billionaire himself—a bold gamble that outshines #3 in audacity and personal risk.
