"It's stone cold crazy," said Eric Schiffer, CEO of the Patriarch Organization, a technology and media private equity firm.

MADNESS An over valued proposition to begin with on a concept u can’t ring fence just like Uber. SoftBank,invested about $10.5 billion in WeWork, will lend them $5 billion and buy upto $3 billion shares. This isn’t the last we have heard of this story more than green mail.
