So it is supposedly worth a $100 Billion again? I can only see it being worth that to a very small group of sinister people, who would benefit to have a psychological profile of every goy in the world, with the object of being the ultimate rulers of the world. Phasebook is not likely to ever generate enough revenue and profit to otherwise motivate such a valuation...

Don't be too sure about that. Todays young'uns aren't about to give up their facebook. The youth and many adults are hooked on it and are gladly walking to slaughter by the NWO's hand.
This could be the website of future online purchasing, banking and transactions. (just a guess)

Actually, a lot of FB users aren't happy with FB, but they love the idea of this type of social network. FB's biggest threat is if there were to be a worthy competitor that would enable a transfer of existing FB content.

FB's current value is tied to its ubiquitous, which is difficult to price. They have made themselves the gateway to internet access for a huge number of non-FB applications and forums. That certainly represents huge "value", but it's hard to put a number on it, which is why it's one of those stocks that will have huge price swings.

How much they are worth, and how evil they are, are two different discussions.

i know lots of people are abandoning it. technology's half life seems to be about 3 or 4 years. at least 4 people i know in their 20s have deleted their accounts. they all do gorup mms texts now because it's more hidden / private.

Well and good, but do they understand that all of their text messages are likely recorded by NSA for later use?

yep, or Apple a few years ago, you'd be a millionaire now, maybe not a very big one, but never the less, a millionaire; you could NEVER achieve the results of investing in the market versus investing in PMs dollar for dollar

Microsoft bought $150 million of Apple shares in 1997. http://news.cnet.com/2100-1001-202143.html

Apparently Microsoft got 18.2 million shares for their original investment, which would have been worth aprox $9 Billion today if they had kept them. http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2010/05/apples-stock-rise-could-have-meant-5-billion-for-microsoft/

Facebook is losing tons of users daily. People are either concerned about privacy, bored with the format, following their friends to newer and cooler platforms, or, are teenagers that are sick of their parents and family following them around. The stock has been and still is a pump and dump scheme. Who wants to catch a falling knife?

Didn't they do an IPO with myspace? It didn't work out too well if I remember correctly.

I hate Facebook. I would leave for something else in a heart beat if my family would too. I'm mainly on it just to stay in touch with family and a handful of friends. People generally don't trust the spying/NSA connections. People aren't that dumb about it believe it or not and an alternative can easily spring up and replace it pretty much overnight.

I think one of the best investments now is ammo. I've focused all my energy lately on doing that, but I'm only buying in cash locally. If you can find it at Wally World, pick it up since it's still super cheap there - if you can find it.

Yes, I think they were, and probably the Microsoft investment/commitment made the difference for Apple at the time, plus getting Jobs back on the job the year prior. Nowadays I'm not sure it was a good thing though... But I am left with the impression that Jobs was an outsider to the elite, none of that donation to 'good causes' that Gates is involved with to further the new world order...

i respect Jobs' manic attention to detail, except for he didn't know when to 'turn it off'.

his perfectionism extended out of the lab & company offices, to simple things like if he was travelling and the maid fvcked up at some hotel he was staying at, he would give them a free sample of the Steve Jobs "i am an asshole, hear me roar" speech.

it's one thing to burn an engineer or technician or programmer for not meeting his standards, it's quite another to inflict this on a relatively innocent stranger.

though i'm guessing Laurene helped him dial it back after they got married.


as far as FaceBilk, even if it was an obvious good investment, i would avoid it.

whatever you think of gates is beside the point for this argument, MS made a 60 times return on their initial investment if your $9b figure is right and of course if they still hold the stock today, I was referring to back in 2001-2002, Apple stock was in the mid-high teens at some points in time, closed today @ $486.22 :D

Last fall I warned you (https://tomluongo.me/2017/10/11/post-facebook-world-value/) Facebook has a fundamental problem.
More and more people were realizing it and it would have an effect on the company’s business going forward.
Here’s the jist of it:

…the biggest problem with Facebook is it’s all fake intimacy; a pale simulacra of real life interactions with people you are supposed to care about.
But, I don’t care about 99% of the people I went to high school with. I went to college 1100 miles from those people and barely looked back. The people I truly value from that part of my life mostly feel about Facebook the way I do.
That’s what makes them people I value.
They value the value of their closely-held opinions and don’t dilute it by publicly sharing their banality. They realize that being friends is more than dropping political stink bombs in someone’s digital living room and saying, “I dare you to not breathe.”
So, here you are on a platform that is supposed to be all about you and the last thing anyone really wants to be on Facebook is … themselves.
In the November 2011 issue of the Gold Goats ‘n Guns Investment Newsletter (https://tomluongo.me/2017/11/08/november-issue-of-gold-goats-n-guns-newsletter-released/)I led off that issue with this criticism of Facebook as a reason the company would soon hit the proverbial customer wall:

Facebook was built on the false premise that we want to be in contact with all of the people we ever met ALL THE TIME. But no, we really don’t. We all, as T.S. Eliot put it, “prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet.”
We are all different people depending on our venue. Public social networks force us to adopt one persona or face the wrath of the self-righteous.
A billion plus people who are all wrong on the internet. In real time. Lovely!
