He previously made a reported $770,000 from his Facebook salary and bonuses, but he slashed his salary to its current rate in 2013. That means a huge chunk of his wealth is tied to Facebook stock, of which he owns nearly 17%, reported Business Insider's Jake Kanter.

Zuckerberg's net worth fell following a year of Facebook scandals, reported Kanter. He dropped three places down Forbes' 2019 billionaire's list from 5th to 8th place.
Business Insider found the difference between Zuckerberg's 2017 and 2018 net worths (as provided by the Forbes' 2017 and 2018 richest people in the world lists, published every March) to determine his annual earnings. Zuckerberg's annual earnings came to roughly $15 billion.
