对Snapchat执行长伊万·斯皮格 (Evan Spiegel) 来说，人生真的很顺遂。他的公司Snap Inc. 周四以330亿美元 (约台币1兆) 上市，他个人的身价也高达56亿美元。高富帅的他未婚妻还是名模米兰达·寇儿 (Miranda Kerr)…而他今年才26岁。他是最年轻的亿万富翁之一，说他是人生胜利组，一点也不为过。

他自己也知道自己的条件有多得天独厚。他曾在一次史丹佛商业讨论会中说：「我是个年轻、教育程度高的白人男性。我真的非常非常幸运，而人生本就不公平。」

斯皮格在洛杉矶郊区的太平洋帕利萨德地区长大，爸妈都是常春藤律师而他是长子，他的爸妈在他高中时离异。

Spiegel grew up in the Pacific Palisades, a ritzy Los Angeles enclave just east of Malibu. He is the older son of two Ivy League-educated lawyers. His parents divorced when he was in high school.

中学时他就读非常难进入的十字路艺术与科学学校 (Crossroads School)，这所学校不仅要价不赀，也是许多名流的母校，包括Tinder共同创办人Sean Rad、凯特·哈德森 (Kate Hudson)、乔纳·希尔 (Jonah Hill)、杰克·布莱克 (Jack Black)、葛妮丝·派特洛 (Gwyneth Paltrow) 等人都曾就读于此。

Spiegel spent his early years at an ultra-exclusive school called Crossroads in Santa Monica, which costs tens of thousands per academic year. Other notable alumni include Tinder cofounder Sean Rad, Kate Hudson, Jonah Hill, Jack Black, and Gwyneth Paltrow.

斯皮格16岁取得驾照时，爸妈就送了他一台凯迪拉克Escalade，他都停在学校附近旁边受管制的南加州爱迪生公司停车场，因为他的父亲在能源危机时是该间公司的律师。当时在红牛 (Red Bull) 公司作行销实习生的斯皮格认为应该要一台更省油的车，于是写信要爸妈借他一台约230万元的BMW 550i。

Around the time that he landed a marketing internship with Red Bull, Spiegel decided that he wanted a more fuel-efficient car to drive around the city in. In a letter from 2008, Spiegel asked his parents to lease him a BMW 550i, which retails for about $75,000. "Cars bring me sheer joy," he wrote. "I would really appreciate you validating me and all of my hard work by leasing the BMW."

他在那封2008年的信中写道：「名车让我非常快乐。如果你们能以租我BMW来认可我和我的辛勤努力，我会非常感激。」

光从以上你就可以想像斯皮格家的有钱程度。斯皮格也是许多顶级俱乐部的会员，他们家时常到欧洲旅行、顾有全职管家，甚至能够搭直升机到加拿大滑雪。斯皮格自己也在信中写道：「我们活在梦幻泡泡中。」

斯皮格大学在史丹佛就读产品设计，度过了一段年少轻狂的大学时光。他也是在那里认识未来的Snapchat共同创办人，Reggie Brown跟鲍比·墨菲 (Bobby Murphy)。

Spiegel went on to study product design at Stanford (his father's alma mater), where he met future Snapchat cofounders Reggie Brown and Bobby Murphy.

他们三人都是Kappa Sigma兄弟会成员。虽然斯皮格自己说：「我们都不酷，所以我们试着做出很酷的东西。」但他却是兄弟会中的公关主席，从一些被泄漏出的信件看来，他也很爱办派对。

"We weren't cool," Murphy later told Forbes, "so we tried to build things to be cool."

2014年时，有一些斯皮格大学时的email被流出，他在信上开了一些贬低女性的玩笑。信件被公开后斯皮格也公开道歉表示：「我很抱歉写下那些话，当时写下那些的我真的是浑蛋。它们没办法反映现在的我是怎样的人，以及我对待女性的态度。」

The three were members of the Kappa Sigma fraternity. Spiegel was social chair, and judging from leaked emails, he was quite the partier.

在直觉电脑软体公司创办人史考特‧库克到一堂课上演讲后，斯皮格跟他成了朋友。后来库克甚至让斯皮格做一项直觉电脑软体公司打算在印度上市的产品，当时斯皮格都还没毕业。

Spiegel befriended Intuit founder Scott Cook after he gave a talk at one class. Cook ended up letting Spiegel work on a product Intuit planned to release in India while he worked on his undergrad.

在2012年斯皮格跟两名共同创办人开发出能够自毁照片的APP，一开始叫做Picaboo。斯皮格也毅然决然辍学已专心发展APP，并以斯皮格爸爸在太平洋帕利萨德地区的家为总部。

即使后来他们总部搬到Venice boardwalk，斯皮格也仍旧住在爸爸的房子好几年，主要原因是「租金很便宜」。

Though Snapchat eventually moved to offices on the Venice boardwalk, Spiegel lived at his dad's house for years, in part because "the rent is cheap."

在2013年时，Reggie Brown对斯皮格跟鲍比·墨菲提出诉讼，原因是他被逼出公司且拿到的钱不合理。最后Snapchat公司付了他1.57亿美元 (约台币48亿) 达成和解。

Reggie Brown filed a lawsuit against Spiegel and Murphy in 2013 after he was forced out of the company and not given equity. The lawsuit was eventually settled, and Snapchat paid Brown $157.5 million to disappear.

2014年时斯皮格搬出他爸的家，住进位于布伦特伍德，约330万美元 (约1亿台币) 的房子。不过在那之前，最轰动的事件大概是脸书创办人马克祖克伯 (Mark Zuckerberg) 想以30亿美元收购，却被斯皮格拒绝！

Spiegel moved out of his dad's house in November 2014 and bought his own three-bedroom house in Brentwood for $3.3 million.

斯皮格拒绝并购被视为豪赌，但也为他赚了超大量的免费宣传及曝光率。之后脸书试图创一个类似Snapchat功能的APP「Poke」，不过却被Snapchat彻底击败。

It wasn't long before would-be acquirers came knocking on Spiegel's door to buy Snapchat. He famously rebuffed a $3 billion offer from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg in 2013.

短短几年间斯皮格挤身科技业最顶尖的一群，参加各种高峰会、买了名车法拉利，情史也十分丰富，甚至曾跟泰勒丝传出一段情。

Spiegel was romantically linked with pop superstar Taylor Swift for a brief time. The two reportedly met in December 2013 at a New Year's Eve party.

斯皮格本身也对音乐产业极有兴趣，索尼娱乐的执行长Michael Lynton还是Snap公司的董事长。据传斯皮格还想买下泰勒丝的所属公司大机器唱片，不过多年来仍无下文。

Spiegel has been fascinated with the music industry for years, and Sony Entertainment CEO Michael Lynton is Snap's board chairman. Spiegel was reportedly interested in buying Big Machine, the record label that represents Swift, though the deal never went through.

在2015年夏天，斯皮格也开始跟名模米兰达寇儿约会，两人是在2014年LV晚餐时认识。两人在2016年买下要价美金1200万 (台币约3.7亿)，原属哈里逊福德，占地202坪的豪宅。

Spiegel started dating supermodel Miranda Kerr during the summer of 2015. They first met at a 2014 dinner for Louis Vuitton.

两人也在2016年7月宣布订婚。至此，斯皮格真可说是什么都有了。

Things moved quickly after that: the power couple announced that they were engaged in July 2016.

他甚至做到其他科技业执行长做不到的事──上了时尚杂志的封面人物。

Spiegel cares about fashion more than most tech CEOs. He made headlines in October 2015 for appearing on the cover of Vogue Italy.

在2016年9月，斯皮格将Snapchat改名Snap Inc.，同时公开附相机功能的眼镜「Spectacles」。

In September 2016, Spiegel renamed Snapchat to Snap Inc. and called it a "camera company." He also unveiled camera-equipped sunglasses called Spectacles.

他是全世界最年轻又白手起家的执行长，在Snapchat正式挂牌后，市值暴涨44%，富比世也估计斯皮格身价飙破56亿美元。斯皮格表示接下来的目标是「革新相机」，更表示自己的公司跟脸书背道而驰，是要只让用户跟亲近的人联系，他也在近期访问中透漏他想要「激发创意」。

The 26-year-old has been named the youngest self-made billionaire in the world by Forbes for the past two years. He has an estimated net worth of about $5.6 billion based on Snap's public offering.

Snap Inc向来对自己的计划保密到家，就连内部员工有时都要等产品发表后才知道公司在做什么。不管怎样，这位天之骄子的下一步肯定又会引发科技资讯业的波动！

Going forward, Spiegel's mission at Snap is to "reinvent the camera." He's positioned his company as the anti-Facebook for communicating with only your closest friends, and he recently told the LA Times that he wants to "inspire creation."
