Q: What is your advice to aspiring entrepreneurs?

Mark Zuckerberg:

All of my friends who, you know, have younger siblings who are going to college or high school-I mean, my number one piece of advice is, you should learn how to program. I mean, I think that in the future, all kinds of jobs-I mean, not even just straight engineering jobs, but all kinds of different jobs are going to involve some element of programming.

You know, when I was at, in school, and I remember the average salary that an engineer, one of my computer science classmates got, and it's gone up at least 50 percent, maybe even doubled, in the last seven years since I was at school.

And I think the reason is that the economy is shifting and there are more companies that are growing that are, that are these technology – and software – focused companies, and the skill set of being able to write code is so highly in demand and the amount of engineers who are graduating isn't growing at a fast enough rate. The people who are there are just in- in more demand and they get paid more.
