Back in December, following the Sony email leak, the world was granted a second (again uninvited) glimpse into the private life and thoughts of the person who had previously suffered another email leak, this time exposing his fraternity days explots: Snapchat founder and CEO Evan Spiegel.

And while many have been quick to mock Spiegel for some of his boyish ways, the reality is that the not only is the 24-year-old the world's youngest billionaire, but he has quickly won the admiration of Silicon Valley's brand names like Twitter CEO Dick Costolo who has said "I really think he is one of the best product thinkers out there right now."

The reason we bring up the Spiegel email leak again, some 4 months after the fact, is that while the public's attention when the email was first released focused on his strategy surrounding the growth of Snapchat, there was another far more important aspect to Spiegel's email.
