Paper loss at best...
Old Zuck will be just fine but the little investors are the ones who get hurt in this situation. That's why it is far batter to get involved pre-IPO if you can and even better if you can do it with no money at risk. For example, service providers can use Stock4Services.com as a way to get equity in quality emerging companies just for performing their services. This way is no cash risk and still pays off if the company goes gangbusters.
