I am enormously sad that nobody has been able to capture the spiritual aspect of creating in tech the way that Steve Jobs and Jony Ive do, because the next generation really can’t feel it that way I did coming into tech

Peter Thiel's $500,000 investment in Facebook in 2004 yielded extraordinary returns. He invested in the company when it was valued at approximately $4.9 million, acquiring a 10.2% stake and joining its board of directors.
By the time Facebook went public in May 2012, Thiel held over 44 million shares. He sold 16.8 million shares during the IPO, netting $640 million. Following the expiration of the lock-up period in August 2012, he sold an additional 20 million shares for $395.8 million. These transactions brought his total cash-out to over $1 billion.
This translates to a Multiple on Invested Capital (MOIC) of 2000x, meaning that for every dollar Thiel invested, he received $2,000 in return. The Internal Rate of Return (IRR) for this investment was approximately 158.6% per year over the 8-year period from 2004 to 2012.
Thiel's investment in Facebook is often cited as one of the most successful angel investments in history, highlighting the potential of early-stage investments in transformative companies.
