Mark Zuckerberg finally explains his gold necklace: ‘It’s for my daughters, engraved with…'
When Mark Zuckerberg was earlier seen with a necklace, he said that he was testing them out as part of his "design process" and that it has sentimental value.
Meta chief Mark Zuckerberg has been creating a buzz on social media for his gold-coloured chain after he wore it in one of his Instagram videos. The tech boss came up with an explanation for his choice of accessory and said that the necklace is engraved with a prayer that he sings to his daughters.
He said, “I sing this to my daughters when I put them to bed. It is a Jewish prayer called Mi Shebeirach and it basically a prayer for health and courage and it says ”May we have the courage to make our lives a blessing”."

He explained, “I have sung it to them basically every night of their lives since they were born. I try to be around for bedtime and when I hang out with my kids it is meaningful for me and my family.”
Several social media users praised Mark Zuckerberg for sharing the meaning behind his necklace with one saying, “as he makes his life more public, we find out what a great person he is.” Another wrote, “If I was a billionaire … I’d probably do loads of cool stuff, so why not” while a third commented, “Wow, a prayer I heard growing up. Pretty sweet to hear this. Hope he’s intentionally making his own life a blessing, too.”
