David Choe is Worth 200 Million Dollars, by Wearology on Feb 2, 2012 15:11:37 GMT 1, Congratulations David Choe - now you can buy a few Banksy's !!!!!!!
David Choe has certainly had an interesting career. He's been jailed in Tokyo and been commissioned by Hollywood madame Heidi Fleiss. Most importantly, he's also painted the walls of the Facebook offices. Mark Zuckerberg is a big fan of Choe. Choe, apparently, is a big fan of Facebook. His faith in Zuckerberg and the company lead to his decision to accept stock options rather than cash payment for his murals. Its paid off. Based on the new Facebook IPO, Choe is now worth $200 million. [Arrested Motion]

David Choe is Worth 200 Million Dollars, by Wearology on Feb 2, 2012 15:20:04 GMT 1, The graffiti artist who took Facebook stock instead of cash for painting the walls of the social network’s first headquarters made a smart bet. The shares owned by the artist, David Choe, are expected to be worth upward of $200 million when Facebook stock trades publicly later this year.

That's a beauty Patrese...although my memory of that opening was a bit fogged by the open bar, I do remember your piece being incredible in person. Congrats!

David Choe is Worth 200 Million Dollars, by Wearology on Feb 7, 2012 17:13:42 GMT 1, I just listened to Choe on the Howard Stern show and he was hilarious. He gave Howard that painting and didn't ask for anything in return. He said that he went on the Stern show because they were the only news outlet that didn't ask him to come on because he is now richer and more famous than before. Don't forget Howard is worth more than 500 million dollars and Choe wanted advise from Howard "The King of All Media" on how to deal with his new found fame and fortune. Choe said he was already rich from gambling and selling his paintings for up to $500,000 to royalty.
Choe said that he didn't sell many paintings at a few hundred dollars or a few thousand dollars - it wasn't until he started asking for tens of thousands of dollars for his paintings that rich people started gobbling them up like tic tacs. He said rich people want what other people can't afford and that's what drives the art market.

David Choe is Worth 200 Million Dollars, by Brushstrokes 75 on Feb 8, 2012 2:11:43 GMT 1, I always liked David Choe's work. (I still want a Jimi & Waffles badly).
But I love his craziness but the fact he doesn't care much about the money. It's a bit fucked IMO that there is all this fuss about him being a millionnaire now. They should have talked about his art instead.
Anyway, he is a cool guy so better him than someone else! Hope he makes another documentary!
