\nWhat we're creating mirrors the Social Network when Mark Zuckerberg ( Jesse Eisenberg ) and Eduardo Saverin ( Andrew Garfield ) are having an exchange during which Eduardo suggests discussing the financial / business direction of the platform. Mark dismisses premature monetization by stating: "We don't even know what it is yet. We don't know what it is, what it can be, what it will be. We know it's cool, that's a priceless asset and we're not giving it up."
\nGodspeed,
