Vincent Tan, the money-man behind the Bluebirds, made his windfall after the social networking company floated on the New York Stock Exchange last night.

The Malaysian billionaire has 3.5million shares in Facebook, which were last night valued at $38.23 – or £24.20 per share.

If Tan held onto his shares, they will today be valued at $133.8m or £84.7m. :P :P

If he still had them all at the end of today, he will have lost £9m in a day!
