Point out the YouTube had multiple offers - Orono throws up some other straw man. We all get the picture....Orono loves to BullS....t
Huh? Obama presented the budget. Look it up. Seriously Ray, you are trying way too hard to try and get a "gotcha" moment. Save some face, stop posting. Or, dont and continue to make my day. I good either way.
"The campaign announced that 30,000 people attended, but Secret Service sources said just 15,000 went through metal detectors. And local law enforcement counted the crowd at 18,000." Read more: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1112/83252.html#ixzz2BNpa3Q2R
That is your comeback? Wow. Youre taking all the fun out of this. This isnt even a fair fight. You found a report in 2009 that echos everything I have said that YouTube isnt profitble. How about a report from one of their audit firms or investment companies that refutes my argument? How does that comment justify your inability to understand a balance sheet.
No Orono, I caught you bulll...ting again. You posted a report by two very specific analysts that was from 2009. Nice try though.
I am sure youre a great kid. But that is your downfall. You are making very immature decisions and choices. You are assuming that I am not very smart and couldnt possibly know what I am talking about. I am guessing that you have a top knotch degree from some fabulous liberal school. And that school has somehow made you think you are smarter than everyone else. The reality is your schooling hasnt even afforded you a job where you control a P&L. If you did, you would understand the difference between revenue and profit. But, here you are trying like hell to discredit me and my businesses by pretending you do. You dont have to like me or like what I do and if you honestly think your opinion on me matters to anyone, you are sadly mistaken. You, yourself have to be getting tired from trying so hard. You dont own a business, you dont have a job that even controls a P&L, you dont understand the difference between profit and revenue and it is time to stop pretending.
"After stripping out revenue share" - a concept that Orono does not understand." "Orono - I think you've once again proven how clueless you are" Ray, is the air getting a little thin down in mommy's basement? You are trying like hell to somehow prove that I am wrong. You are the clueless that doesnt understand that revenues are not the same as profits. I have said many dumb things in my life. I will NEVER top you. What is your obsession with YouTube? Two analysts from 2009 echoing my points. And that is "bull crap"? It is 2012, surely you can find an analyst that disagrees with the two I quoted. How about you post 1 analyst that backs your claim that revenue and profit are the same thing. Good Luck! Why do you continue to double down on an obvious error you made?
I grew up part of Romney's 47 percent, and my dad was a factory worker. I have a lot of respect for punchpress and turret lathe operators. Maybe the reason your employees are getting drunk and stupid is because they hate their jobs and they hate their boss. Maybe you should think about an employee assistance program under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
We have been profitable since Day One, but we sure as hell aren't making $100k in profit this year. Maybe someday, but not right now. The expenses involved with running a business are huge. Profit is what matters, and that report on YouTube says nothing about profit.
Actually i have a very technical degree along with another one in a non-tech. field. Unlike you i don't spend my time trying to convince others how smart/not-smart i am. I leave that to BullS...ers like you. If you can't read a revenue report to asses profitability that only shows what a BullSh....er you are. For an internet portal like google the net revenue growth as displayed points to major profits, cause they have to just flip on more servers at an incremental build out cost that is minimal, cause they use generic hardware. Since you can't understand such concepts, you just keep on Bull....ing as to what a wonder you are in the field of business. You really have a syndrome, that i cannot name here. Your'e so offended that a young man of less than 30 years could build companies tens of thousand times the size of your two bit shack, that you go prozac.

Certain narrow provisions of the PPACA affect employers under/over 50 employees differently. The difference is in how the "mandate" (tax) works. The other 2600 pages - affecting hospitals, drug companies, medical schools, drug companies, other taxes, medicare, medicaid, medical device companies, doctors, nurses, state exchanges, and the IRS most CERTAINly affect those with both over and under 50 employees.
Why do you continue to double down on your stupidity. You will note that no one is coming to your rescue. No one is agreeing with you. It is impossible for you to win this argument. Not even your mommy can save you.
I have an MBA from Kellogg http://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/
Technical Degree. Yeah that's the one with which people in this country actually make things and start real companies. You know like Google, YouTube etc. That bull....t business degree of yours is the sames one that shy...ter Romney has. And all he's done is strip and flip companies. And in your case, run some two bit shack to stroke your ego.
In 2010 Google CEO stated they were near break even (at net of about 500M). Currently with a net run rate that reaches almost 1 billion a year, your analysis says no profit ?
Then prove it Donald. Or point to a link.
Free speech and all, and I didn't see any candidate I am supporting "approving" the ad, so what's the harm?
- Absolute contempt for others , check. - Spew any lie, any bs. to "prove" their point , check. - When facts get inconvenient, throw up straw man arguments, like Jeep moving to China, or youtube was lucky, check. - Plenty of self serving morality. No check yet. We know that Romney used the Mormon church as his tax shelter. Not sure what schemes Orono has cooked. But wouldn't be surprised to move this box into check.
Near break even? That means the LOST money. Or in other words, they ALMOST made a profit. Well Ray, you almost have a clue. You lack the ability to understand what you are even arguing. Your own arguments prove yourself wrong. I cant continue this conversation with you. Your reality and the rest of the world are very different. You might want to talk to someone about this.... Good luck to you.
Near break-even in 2010 with a a net revenue run rate that is almost double that and still the resident bull..er can't comprehend the math. I know u went to Kellog. Did your daddy have to pay a lot of money ?
