> It seems like bailing them out from bankruptcy continues that philosophy. That would be the unfair advantage other VC firms would not offer. yea, in the end softbank gave them the rope to do this to themselves and to protect a $10B write down …

Seems to me a strategy is for Softbank to let this go to bankruptcy or basically close to it and then put money into it. I don't think WeWork should die but it's not a high growth opportunity. Based on my very loose recall of the S-1 of rental …

Thank you for your service I hope trying all those delicious foods wasn't too much of a burden ;) I haven't tried their food bars, I will. One interesting point, at the NYC Barry's they no longer use plastic for the smoothies, it's some kind of …

> I'd love to hear from others who've actually worked remotely at WeWork offices At my last company we had a tiny office in the back of a lawyer's office building at the end of Van Ness in the Marina. Really nice family. They were willing to rent …

Not conservative enough?

Given this, any recommendations for a good post workout drink or snack? I get pretty hungry after those intense full body HIIT classes at Barry's Bootcamp. Post workout "shakes" have some allure because they're quick/easy and a little tasty and …

nice, also I think you're being conservative at $4 per cup, @Chris tells me you're into the fancy stuff :)

How much do you think you saved in coffee related expenses by using this versus going to a coffee shop?

Thanks for adding this to the thread, very informative. On a side note, the information is a site I recently opened up my digital wallet for.

Interesting, how would you have approached it?

Feels like a lifetime ago but I do remember when all software was purchased once and if they had a new version you were out of luck unless you were willing to buy the full new version. As a teenager I was barely willing / able to pay for it once …

Since taking over as CEO in November 2007, Shantanu Narayen has generated ~$120B in shareholder value. His $25MM+ per year compensation seems like a good deal for the company doesn't it?

TechCrunch posted an article about the ten year anniversary since Adobe bought Omniture. I remember that well...one side of the debate thought they over paid and the move made no sense. 2009 Adobe = $16B Market Cap 2019 Adobe = $136B Market …

Thanks for this review. I really dislike this genre but this make me think it's worth watching.

Apparently they're now looking at going to market at $10B valuation... so basically they're now worth less then the investment they've taken in. What does that mean for the employees stock option value?

> My understanding is rich commercial real estate guys, like one of my best friends, own their buildings. But you can’t grow as fast as WeWork by purchasing because it soaks up your cash in the short term. Makes sense to me. I think if you're …

Any experts in real estate investing here on Cake? I'd love to see a model of what their valuation might be today if they used the majority of their $12.6B in funding to acquire and develop real-estate over the past 11 years. I imagine they'd be a …

I've been following the team pretty closely for the past 25 years or so (wow i'm getting old). What's amazing during the TB era is just how many times they've won close games. Games where it comes down to 1-2 plays being the difference. So many …

> More reasons to hate the Patriots to be fair... the patriots aren't involved. Not a good situation with AB. If we turn to Josh Gordon I think the Patriots should be shown some respect, they're really trying and committed to helping him turn his …

As a Patriots fan I love to troll Steelers and Raider's fans but after the news yesterday... ugh. They clearly didn't need him on Sunday night. I was very excited to see what kind of creative play calling Josh McDaniels could cook up with this …

I was lucky enough to go watch the men's semi-finals live on Friday. While watching a 23 year old and 28 year old warm up it really occurred to me, wow... these guys are playing for $1MM, today, right now. Can you imagine playing a tennis match …

Janelle is the real deal, thank you for sharing!

That was a ridiculously satisfying video to watch. My arteries hurt a little but it looks super tasty!

thanks for sharing this. I'd like to join that game of backgammon.

> I just wish they would come up with a delicious plant-based chicken sandwich to help the environment. A nice crispy portabello mushroom sandwich would do the trick for me. Point taken on their treatment of employees, we certainly need more of …
