There is a practice of assessing the value of Internet companies based on their user count at $xx per user (yes, I think it is usually two digits!). I imagine that the more exclusive and stratified a slice of humanity that the user base represents, the higher the value of xx.
I think this investment philosophy includes very little _revenue model_ and very much _grab it and its user base now and figure out how to make money later_.
