MEETING DUSTIN MOSKOVITZ: Lessons from the Story of a Builder, a Thinker, and a Billionaire Devoted to Making the World Better (Billionaire Minds: Stories of Grit and Greatness)

By Marcus Grant

A quiet young man helped build Facebook in a small Harvard dorm room, walked away at the height of its rise, created another world-shaping company, and then set out to give away most of his fortune to make life better for others. His name is Dustin Moskovitz.

Meeting Dustin Moskovitz tells the real story of the co-founder of Facebook and the creator of Asana, a man whose calm mind and steady ideas changed the world in ways most people never realized. This book takes you into his life from his childhood in Florida to Harvard, to the tiny dorm room where a simple student website began to grow into a global platform. You will see how Dustin helped build Facebook in its early years, how he became a billionaire before the age of thirty, and why he walked away from the race for power to start fresh with a new vision.

Inside these pages, you will also see the side of Dustin most people do not know. You will learn about his partnership with his wife, Cari Tuna, and how together they created one of the most thoughtful philanthropic efforts in the world. Their work through Good Ventures and Open Philanthropy has saved lives, funded scientific breakthroughs, supported global health programs, and guided millions of dollars toward fighting poverty and improving the future. This book gives a clear, human picture of the man behind those decisions.

Readers looking for business success stories, tech history, inspiration, leadership lessons, and real examples of using wealth for good will find everything they want here. The story is written in simple, natural language that feels genuine and personal. You will see the choices, the turning points, the friendships, the mistakes, and the quiet strength that shaped Dustin's life and career.
