On Saturday Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg will turn 32-years-old and it looks like he's got a few billion things to celebrate.

Zuckerberg's fortune is currently estimated at $51.8 billion, making this young man one of the world's richest people.

Based on his youth, he's actually made more money for every day he's been living than anybody else on the planet.

Specifically, Zuckerberg's potent combo of youth and wealth has averaged out to $4.4 million for every day he's been alive, according to CNBC calculations.

According to Forbes Zuckerberg managed to add a staggering $11.2 billion to his fortune in just 12 months last year.

But, don't be fooled into thinking Zuckerberg will be spending that all himself. The Facebook founder and his wife, Priscilla, have announced they will donate 99% of their wealth to charity during their lifetimes.

Zuckerberg has even made it into the top ten ranking billionaires in the world in Forbes' 2016 list.

The man who founded Facebook in 2004 ranks at number six in this year's list, only beaten by Bill Gates, Amancio Ortega, Warren Buffett, Carlos Slim Helu and Jeff Bezos.

The social media entrepreneur also found himself at number 19 in the publication's list of 'World's Most Powerful People' for 2015.
