          實習記者藍彥欣/綜合報導 Meta執行長札克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)身價高達2220億美元(約新台幣7兆元),是全球最富有的企業領袖之一。但他卻不走奢華炫富路線,反而選擇過低調樸素的生活。外媒報導,他在日常中堅持「5件事絕不浪費錢」,展現出與超級富豪形象截然不同的一面。 Meta執行長札克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)是全球最富有的企業領袖之一。(圖/@Mark Zuckerberg臉書) 首先是衣著簡樸,札克伯格偏好休閒穿打扮,最常見的穿搭是灰色T恤、連帽衫與牛仔褲。即便他的穿衣風格曾受外界批評,有損CEO形象,他卻認為這樣能省下每天的決策數量,把精力留給更重要的事務。 廣告 更多內容請繼續往下閱讀 其次是平價車代步,他曾擁有Honda Fit與Volkswagen Golf Mk6等車款,選擇實用功能而非奢華。許多富豪如媒體大亨彭博(Michael Bloomberg)、亞馬遜(Amazon)創辦人貝佐斯(Jeff Bezos)也同樣偏好平價車款。 第三是婚禮低調,札克伯格於2012年與Priscilla Chan結婚時,婚禮在加州帕羅奧圖的自家後院舉行,餐點由當地餐廳提供,相比動輒上億的富豪婚禮,他們的婚禮顯得樸素許多,甚至一度讓賓客誤以為是參加Priscilla Chan的醫學院畢業派對。 廣告 更多內容請繼續往下閱讀 第四是象徵性薪資,雖然身價驚人,但他延續多年「1美元年薪」的做法,而這並不表示他缺錢,他的主要收入來自其他補償與安全支出。 最後是度假不鋪張,札克伯格一家人不追求奢華度假,而是偏好簡單旅行,例如在夏威夷逛小店、品嘗當地美食。雖然他在可愛島擁有價值數百萬美元的莊園,但日常度假方式仍相當低調。
