Makes sense. Been 2.5 years. They have gotten bigger. Everything has for cryptocurrency. So more than doubling their valuation while only giving up 10% of company is really good. #bitcoin #startups #funding #coinbase #year:2017 #pub

Naspers owns 16% of Flipkart now. This only values Flipkart at $7.1B by buying 1 more percent for $71M. While eBay, Tencent, and Microsoft, along with eBay India merging, raising $1.4B was at $11.6B valuation. #year:2017 #naspers #conglomerates #tech_companies #pub

Damn so it ended the day at 11% up. It popped as high as 20% at some point. So now I know, yeah - sell that shit! Even if it goes to or above 20% tomorrow or day after, I'd be able to get out asap. But check out how long it popped to 20% for. Was it even 5 min? #twilio #stocks #earnings #reports #pops #year:2017 #Q2 #lessons #learning #pub

Buffett doing his 3rd bailout of a finance company. Goldman Sachs in 2008. Bank of America in 2011. Both were him getting 8-9% of the companies. This time, 38% of Home Capital Group for $300M. And a $2B credit line at 9% interest rate. High interest rate lol. #year:2017 #bailouts #news #warren_buffett #banks #investing #boss_peeps #arrangements #goldman_sachs #pub

Coinbase is getting a crazy $1.6B valuation with only $100M being raised. 2.5 years ago in early 2015, they raised $75M at $500M or $600M valuation. #funding #unicorns #coinbase #massive #cryptocurrency #financial_software #payment_services #year:2017 #pub

They did $60M funding a few years before 2017 at like $600M valuation. So this $75M is at $800M valuation. #year:2017 #funding #music #startups #AI #almost_unicorns #pub

Worth $5.1B with a ton of funding already. Seems like after this round they have over a billion in funding if I’m understanding correctly? #money #year:2017 #valuations #softbank #slack #boss #funding #unicorns #pub

That $4. 5% of company stake is now worth $7.5B. Another win. 2017-03. Nvidia was worth $80B at the time. Beast! #tech_companies #softbank #nvidia #billion_dollar_deals #boss #vision_fund #investments #year:2017 #pub

Season 7 is 2013-2014. Season 7-9, it was $750K for the 2 lower guys and $1M for the 3 core. The two lower guys got to parity with $1M in season 10. They all took paycuts down to $900K (5 of them). The two late comer females made $60K in season 7 and $100K in season 9 or 10. They are trying to get close to $500K/episode for season 11/12. Season 12 is the last season, ending in spring 2019. The core trio were making $350K/episode in season 6. The other two guys got $100K/episode in 2010 negotations, after season 3 aired, but before season 4. The other article for the 2014 (season 8+ negotations) stated for back-end stuff: "I hear Parsons, Galecki and Cuoco also quadrupled their previous ownership on the show, which has gone up from 0.25 to more than a point. I hear Parsons’ pact includes a production deal that spans TV and features and possibly theater, with Galecki and Cuoco also getting producing arrangements." -- What does 1 point mean? Not sure if it literally means they own 1% of everything related to the show. #media #salaries #side_porn #numbers #year:2017 #pub

To say Twilio Inc (NYSE:TWLO) has been a contentious stock would be a considerable understatement. From an IPO price of in June of 2016 to a high of $70.96 three months later to the current price near $29.00, TWLO stock has thrown more than a little volatility at investors — some good, some bad.
