21st century�s most exclusive clubs � the young millionaires who made
their money online - yet Karp�s public profile is surprisingly discreet,
especially when compared to the archetypal cyber-tycoon, Mark
Zuckerberg. Although perhaps Karp is just lucky that Aaron Sorkin hasn�t
taken an interest in his life.

But does his Mom tell him, "That Zuckerberg boy stayed in school, and
his company went for $90 billion when they sold the stock!"
