Summary

According to a report by MSNBC, the Facebook IPO will mint over 1,000 new millionaires. Experts are stating they expect nonprofits, donor advised funds and charitable remainder trusts to benefit from the largest Internet IPO in history.

From MSNBC:

What will a new generation of Facebook millionaires do with their wealth? It’s a good bet that many will splurge on a fancy new car, purchase a new home or perhaps even plan a trip to space. But it's also likely that they’ll be giving some of it away to charity.
