The focus of the Facebook IPO turned to the wealth of founder Mark Zuckerberg, again. The issue is so much more important than the company itself, or its new investors, that Bloomberg reported Zuckerberg will be worth more than Steve Ballmer.

Zuckerberg is about to take his spot at the top of that pyramid. And, Ballmer gets pushed down the list, at least until Facebook’s stock drops.
