How come some 25yo person is a director at Facebook?

This reminds me of my 25-year-old coworker who was laid off recently. I once had to take him to pickup a scuba suit from Enterprise after he'd forgotten it in the trunk, and about a month later, his bicycle from police impound after he'd chained it to some random businesses door one evening and forgot to come back and get it for several days. He'd also go out late every night and then regularly fall asleep at his desk.

He's a great guy but I can't imagine how someone that age becomes director of anything let alone one at a conpany with 75k employees and a market cap of $1.6T.
