Yes, I really think that the Winklevoss twins deserve a prequel and sequel of The Social Network movie and also directed by David Fincher. There are two rare events. I assume the Winklevoss twins were exposed to less risky ventures in their life but they chose the risky ones.



It's not really risky if you're already rich and you only stand to be "slightly less rich" if you bet wrong.


It's not one or the other

If you settlement was 10Mi (example), sell 1Mi shares in cash: congrats, you're rich now, then invest the remaining 9Mi in higher risk stuff


The impression I got from the documentary film "The Social Network" was that they were already pretty well off even before the fb settlement.
