I had no idea how to even think about valuing companies.

Like I was not thinking strategically.

I didn't have like an MBA.

I wasn't like,

oh, let's think about risks and analyze this particular company.

So no, I just went there mostly because it was similar reasons as I was giving before.

I liked the product.

I thought it was interesting.

And I liked the people that was there.

But I would say yes in the sense that at the time, Facebook was a college and high school social network.

So nobody...

really knew about it.

And, you know, my mom would call me and she would say things like, why are you going to this company?

Like, this isn't really going to go anywhere.

Why don't you go work at Microsoft or Google or something that we all know?

And I did believe, and I think everyone at Facebook at that time believed that we were much bigger than just a high school and college social network, um, that we are, our dreams were much bigger, that there was like a lot that the world wasn't seeing about what, what we wanted.

So I definitely feel like that vision

And of course, Mark very early on had this very, very grand vision for what he wanted to do to connect the world.

But I think we all believe that.

And I certainly, I was like, mom, I'm going to prove you wrong.
