1 share of coke at ipo was like $40 for a single share in 1919. Adjusted for inflation is like $400 today. That single share because of splits and dividends would have a total value of around $6million usd. I may be a bit off of my numbers it was a while when i read the article. I just tried to google it and the first result is that coca cola is planning on doing an IPO in africa... Is gamestop planning on doing something similar?

**Over $3M Has Been Spent on GameStop's NFT Marketplace** GameStop's NFT has performed better than many expected since launching on Monday. *Daniel Van Boom July 13, 2022 6:10 p.m. PT* GameStop's experiment with NFTs has gotten off to a surprisingly good start. Since its NFT marketplace launched on Monday, over $3.5 million has been spent on the platform's top 50 NFT collections. With a royalty rate of 2.25% per sale, GameStop's marketplace has generated about $67,500 in revenue for the company. That's not gamechanging money, but is more than many expected. GameStop's NFT marketplace launch occured in the middle of crypto winter, which has seen interest in NFTs fall alongside the tanking value of bitcoin and ether. Ether, with which most NFTs are purchased, is down nearly 70% since the new year dawned. Many of GameStop's customers categorically reject NFTs, with attempts by Ubisoft and Square Enix to integrate crypto and NFTs into games being spurned by gamers en masse. GameStop hopes to compete with OpenSea, which is the biggest NFT marketplace. About $17 billion has been spent on Ethereum-based NFTs on the OpenSea marketplace this year, according to Dune analytics. OpenSea takes a 2.5% cut of every NFT sold on its platform, meaning revenues would sit at about $425 million in the last 7 months. GameStop's NFT marketplace has had a stronger start than crypto exchange CoinBase. After many delays and much anticipation, CoinBase's NFT marketplace launched on April 20 -- and has seen around $3 million in volume since, according to Dune Analytics. The biggest NFT collection on GameStop's NFT marketplace is MetaBoy, which features Game Boy-themed pixel art. Over $1 million has been spent on MetaBoy NFTs alone. GameStop's business has struggled over the past decade as people increasingly buy games online, a trend pronounced enough that Sony offers a digital-only PlayStation 5 . With a customer base in flux, the company now eyes the lucrative NFT market, which was last year worth $25 billion. In addition to its newly-launched marketplace, GameStop also offers its own cryptowallet. NFTs are tokens minted from a blockchain that certify ownership of a digital asset; they're the digital equivalent of the deed to a property. Critics say NFTs are a temporary craze that will eventually fade to obscurity once the bubble well and truly bursts, while proponents argue NFTs will change the internet economy forever. Unfortunately for the GameStop, the recent crypto crash has dashed enthusiasm for all things blockchain. NFT sales on OpenSea fell from $2.5 billion in May to $696 million in June. With ether sitting at around $1,000, there's enough market activity for an incumbent company like OpenSea to chug along, but it will be far more challenging for a newcomer like GameStop to etch a space for itself in the market. GameStop's marketplace is Ethereum-based, meaning it doesn't sell NFTs built on blockchains like Solana, and currently only offers artwork. GameStop is seemingly banking on its existing customer base to dabble in NFT trading, as the marketplace currently doesn't offer blue chip collections like Bored Ape Yacht Club, Doodles or Cool Cats -- collections popular among NFT traders, but unaffordable to most people. Eventually, the marketplace will expand to encompass "Web3 gaming", which refers to games that utilize NFTs and cryptocurrencies. To that end, GameStop has struck up a partnership with Immutable, a company that specializes in blockchain gaming. The two have offered a $100 million grant to Web3 developers that join the platform. It comes at a tumultuous time for GameStop. Last week the company fired its Chief Financial Officer amid wider layoffs within the organization. "Change will be a constant as we evolve our commerce business and launch new products through our blockchain group," GameStop CEO Matt Furlong said in an email to staff, according to Kotaku. In the company's most recent quarterly financial report, at the end of April, it revealed net losses of $157 million. First published on July 11, 2022 at 6:38 p.m. PT.

Yup, this. I'm always a little surprised when people ask these super basic things. When I got into crypto, pretty much the first thing I looked up was how wallets work — which is information that's readily available. Besides, with all the praise that hardware wallets get, how do people think that the system is so poorly designed that losing a wallet wound mean losing all the coins too?

SO and I had a napkin agreement to split what's mine is mine and what's his is his until children are involved. You cannot imagine how unfair this situation is to mothers. I'm on maternity leave now. The max you can earn is $29750 and that amount is taxed. I'm going to use round numbers and say I make 100K. I effectively lose ~$70250 for that year of not working. Husband is picking up more of the bills this year, but that's still all the income I have to spend and save from. Meanwhile, I still have to pay work $400/month for benefits and pension contributions. That's child one. And one year less experience I have to grow my salary or pick up the standard inflationary raise. Now on the other hand, if things are supposed to be 50/50 to protect both of you, why don't you take the other six months off to child rear. You would say, "that doesn't make sense, I earn more money", but to her it wouldn't make a difference to her because it's YOUR pot not the TEAM pot. So split the paternity leave 50/50, share both the child rearing cost and the opportunity cost of leaving the job market for 6 months. Or if she wanted to go back to work after say six months, say her salary is 100K. She would make way more going back to work and sending her kid to daycare. And if that were the case, you'd pay half the daycare costs so she'd come out way ahead. And if it were 50/50 you would also split the pick-ups/drop-offs, any food prep. Edit: And if we're really going into it. Pregnancy and childbirth suck. Breastfeeding sucks. They call it labour for a reason. Google says a surrogate pregnancy is between $18000 - $33000. She should find out what the market rate is, and you would pay her half of that too per pregnancy. Plus half the cost of all the stuff that goes along with it (maternity clothes, all the vacation time used to go to doctor appointments, all the extra vitamins, drugs, etc). Edit 2: Oooh thanks for the silver!

That interest differential is always baked into the total consideration. 0% interest does not exist. People who have actually read their credit agreement will actually see the print of how much the bank actually approved you for. 0% interest is a promotion where they won’t charge you any interest over the term. But you bet that they would have sunk that cost into the total consideration upfront.

And the reason why? A better financial climate for businesses. Mainly the lower taxes, both personal and corporate, attract all the talent from around the world. The other countries know this, that why they are pushing for the US to sign an agreement for a base global tax rate. No chance of it happening though.

Pulling one line out of context is especially stupid. The entire brief paints a picture of Twitter giving musk everything he wants up until this point where he asked for private user data that they could not divulge for a number of common sense reasons, something the agreement explicitly provided for. This is cherry picked from the very tail end. Moreover, the merger agreement states that Twitter doesn’t have much obligation to give musk any data they don’t want to. But they went above and beyond the scope of what the contract required in the spirit of good faith, despite musk continually breaching the contract and acting in bad faith.

He signed an agreement saying he'd pay for TWTR. Has nothing to do with due diligence or anything else. The agreement didn't have any terms like "subject to verification of number of bots" or any of the other issues Musk has raised. He has raised all of these issues AFTER AGREEING to buy the company. You are creating a straw man with this "rumor". Whether anyone in WSB said TWTR "was completely open-doors with Elon" does not even matter. TWTR did not have to be completely open-doors on their information. They had to comply with reasonable requests. Seems like the court will have to decide whether that is true or not. So, I guess if your point is that your post is squashing a rumor that is immaterial...great?

Before workers can take a bargaining strike they must: Not be covered by a current enterprise agreement. Be in the process of bargaining for an enterprise agreement. Not be making claims for others by pattern bargaining. Prove that they are genuinely trying to reach agreement. Hold a secret ballot. Give their employer three clear days notice of the strike. And if workers make it that far, employers can retaliate by locking them out without giving notice and for as long as they want. If a strike happens outside of bargaining then workers and their unions face dire consequences. The employer can: Get an automatic order from the Fair Work Commission (FWC) requiring a return to work. Get injunctions from Federal and State Courts. Discipline workers or sack them. Sue unions and workers for contempt of court if orders or injunctions are not followed to the letter. Sue the workers and their union under various laws for fines up to $10,800 for workers. and $54,000 for unions. Seek compensation against workers and their unions for lost revenue.
