CEO rents out room in his own home on Airbnb

Thanks for exacerbating the shortage in rentals and helping raise rent prices in the Bay Area and in cities all over! 👍😃👍 #eattheriches

He’ll probably use it as a tax cut lol

[@dot0422]

Of course he will, and he is supposed to. Just like what other wealthy people do. That's how the tax codes are set up to benefit the wealthy. 😒

[@harunarandy1423]

Thanks for the insight, but I'm still confused why Bitcoin and crypto prices keep dropping? This drop follows a number of other significant drops in recent weeks. I still hold enormous value of cryptos and it scares me. Whats your take on this?

[@cresponoe9451]

There are many reasons for this drop in value. One of the main reasons is that there is an ongoing debate about whether or not Bitcoin should be regulated as a security or as a currency.

Air-bnb's have had a extraordinary negative impact on Rent prices across the US/and globe - Everyone wants to be a mini-hotel making income at the cost of citizens in their local community being made homeless because the property owners want to make x4 the rental income on PT visitors - kicking them out just to rent a HOTEL ROOM - greedy bastards !

rentals on air bnb are down and landlords are losing money , I think this is a way of driving revenue

Depends on the job. If your job is mainly autonomous with no team based creativity and no client based interaction work from home is entirely sustainable. Spent a decade working in an office that occupied 5 floors for a multinational company located in 100 different countries. Regularly communicated with and knew the names of coworkers in other cities and countries but not all the people in my own office. I have managed a portfolio for my own city and another city for years! Never met a single person in that other city. My work interaction with them had always been phone, back in the day Skype and email. Instead of sitting on a conference call in a board room or a Skype (now Teams) call in my office. I now do it at home. We still get together for office parties or lunches, but literally my work hasn't changed at all except location... and less interruption from people popping in to talk about the game or last night's Game of Thrones episodes or office gossip. Which honestly used to drive me nuts!!! And more work life balance now that my 3 hr commute is gone. I see no point in returning to an office just so I can work remotely.

[@grantwallace1882]

He appears super decent and smart. We have been Airbnb hosts and had a very positive experience with the company.

[@davemarr7743]

Good idea gone wrong. Long term rentals for local people disappeared because of AirBnB. Thereby putting more people out on the street.

[@user-zk8ed4kd2b]

This guy has common sense. He also understands his employees and his market. He has some empathy for people. He analyzes what is happening around him well. He doesn't sound like an egotistical jerk either. I do think that prices for places on AirB&B are too expensive for many people.

[@RockstarFreestyle]

WOW no questions about housing shortage or rent increases as a result of airbnb.

[@handyandy6488]

How about some positive comments here - for variety? ▪︎Is it wrong for Richard Branson to book tickets on Virgin Atlantic? No. It's how he checks on customer service. If the Airbnb products are evolving then it will help for top execs to be hands-on - and also learn if the world has changed significantly. ▪︎ This was seemingly a real discussion and conversation - not just a scripted set of talking points. It got very interesting and philosophical about office vs. remote working. We could do with a lot more of this informed *discussion* on this topic. I wanted to see more here.

[@indirad1876]

I think work should be 7 days a week, rather than 4. Days. Employees should take two days off in a week, everyone is working five days. In this way, traffic will be less on the roads and all the work like driver’s license, insurance and doctor’s availability will be there all the time. My opinion.

[@joeyyc8515]

While I do think it would help build a work ethic in people, you’ll also see even less people using state safety nets to not work. The business that I’m a part of forces me to work everyday, so I understand where you’re coming from.

[@socialyeti5924]

Sounds like you're about your work. If they had 7 day work weeks there would be alot more hours and less results. At first the results may be astounding but eventually people get weary with no days to rest. The purpose of the 4 day work week is to allow employees to produce their best work before they start winding down mentally.

Or the government to use imminent domain and take all these properties that no one is renting and open them up for rent or sale to anyone wanting to own two property but must rent it to tenants that must live in there for atleats 1 full year.

[@dianahill5116]

I have no doubt the government could do that.

[@dianahill5116]

Law enforcement take money and property from people, prior to them being convicted of any crime. They sell items for law enforcement needs: retirement, paid administration leave. The public is not informed of where money and/or where money from the sale of property is being used. People who are innocent and/or charges dropped; might never get the money or property returned. And the time and energy the victim looses; is time and energy that could have been used for work/projects and such. The law enforcement knows 98% of the population in America cannot afford a lawyer. Nor have the time, energy or money to hold law enforcements accountable for crimes committed against civilians.
