Adding co-workers on social media: How much is too much?

Recently started interning at a boutique firm a few months ago. As this is a small firm, everyone is pretty close with one another, and I got pretty close with a couple analysts. Recently, one guy decided to add me on Snapchat.

What is the limit to adding people you know at work to your social media? I think Facebook is okay, but I'm not too sure about Instagram or Snapchat.

What is your thought?

WTF did I just read? Why do you put these people on a pedestal? Chill out, seriously. Adding on IG/Snap/FB isn't a big deal unless you make it one, and that's exactly what you're doing.
