Moreover, if MySpace is not sold at all, we will not be forced to resort to liquidation of long-term interests.
Think of Zuckerberg, who has long mastered the control of Facebook and refused to go public, creating a lot of value.
And for the impression he gave me, it seemed that he didn't care about the market value of his work at all.
He is completing his personal mission to pform the world. I am glad that he is such a person.
Anyway, venture capitalists,

I just hope I will not repeat the 2000 Internet bubble.
The desire to make money does help to innovate, but too greedy will make people empty handed.
