Imagine wanting to save 2% a year in taxes so you light your business of fire
Some great investment opportunities coming over the next several months, good luck everyone.
250 billion … so far
Losing 250 billion in market value is not equivalent to losing 250 billion in cash. You only lose money in stock trading when you sell at a loss.
Unless you’ve used that stock as collateral for a loan, which billionaires love to do, because they always assume stock goes up and future them will pay the bill with less stock than today them would have to pay.
But woe be unto them if stock go down enough.
The solution is gonna be oldest in the book: layoffs.
The guy donates to the president and attends the inauguration, empowering a dangerous and irresponsible man. The president screws up the economy. And who ends up paying for it? Not Tim Cook but the employees.
Tim Cook is a gay man. He may pay for it yet.
So is Peter Thiel. They’ll be fine. It’s poor gays that have to worry.
When they run out of poor gays they’ll have no use for the others.
I won’t cry any tears for Peter Thiel if the fascists come for him honestly
They still could feel their rights taken away. But yes, they won’t be the ones I’ll worry about.

I wonder if these companies are going to use their hitsquads to handle the situation or if they know something the entire world doesn’t…
“Trade wars are easy to win!” - some fucking jackass
He spent a million dollars to curry favor with the man who’s going to control a lot of their interests for four years.
I think the shareholders would agree that its a good bet.
The shareholders who, as a whole, just lost $250B? You think?
Let’s be honest, if Apple didn’t pay that $1m then the shareholders would still have lost $250B. $1m is nothing in this.
Yeah scale. A million is like .001 billions. I would spend .001. Scale it down would you spend a tenth of a cent to possibly save $250? Yes.
I try not to.
I’ll toss this friendly jab, at the risk of offending SatansMaggotyCumFart:
At least you’re not a total failure!
I don’t have a long list of enemies but you just made it on there.
Good call.
I tagged you Fondant so I can remember.
That’s my evil twin.
Yes, hindsight is twenty-twenty, there was speculations about how Trump would implement the tariffs before he did it, and before it could be seen as taking the necessary steps to prevent the tariffs that Apple would be affected by, and bow it can be seen as it could have been worse.
As for loss of stock value, as long as the shareholders don’t sell out of panic, they still have the shares and can recover their losses if the share price goes up.

Someone’s an optimist.
So basically you’re saying he had to pay fief to the king.
More like protection money to the mob boss.
They are the same picture…
The thing that constantly boggles my mind is that Trump could have extorted $50 billion out of the Saudis on Inauguration Day 2016.
I mean, Team Rocket could have figured that scam out.
