I'd like to know who invested North Carolina retiree's money in the first offering of Facebook causing the retirement system in our state to loose a huge amount of retirees money!!! What an irresponsible move!!
Is anybody really surprised? I am not, and for the longest time it has been considered overvalued tech stock. Next, investors will complain that the investment should have been guaranteed and not had any risks..............
No sympathy here, either. I personally can't wait for the day that Facebook breaks apart and its "technology" is sold off.
Well golly gee, how is he EVER going to live on such a paltry sum????? No sympathy for ANYONE who's net worth is >10 BILLION!
