Come October, the settlement fell apart because investors (among many other vocal groups, too) didnt feel the figure was high enough. $8.5 billion, not enough money? Yikes.

Andrew Mason, CEO of Groupon (which raised $700 million for its IPO), is 27 as well. Zynga, which went public in December, is helmed by Mark Pincus, who even at 45 is on the young side for what was, until recently, the prototypical American blue-chip company CEO.
