This analysis explores the true events behind the film The Social Network, focusing on Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, and the legal and personal conflicts that shaped Facebook's early days. It delves into the dilution of Saverin’s shares, the lawsuits with the Winklevoss twins, and how Hollywood dramatized the tale. The video also serves as a cautionary lesson for startup founders about equity, legal structures, and the importance of execution over ideas.
