@@jryde421 That's not how it works. In the early days, he would've wanted the company to be profitable as he owned much of it. However, as investors come on, their investment managers want nothing but growth, every second of every day. If the company grows, the investor gets richer on paper. However, it happens to be the fund manager that is the bigger issue here, as the more growth he exhibits, the larger fee he will be paid. Adam was just delivery what the investors wanted. Sure he did a lot more to look out for himself in the end as he realized that the growth was unsustainable and would lead to a crash. However, who wouldn't? He showed up everyday and did what was asked of him and in the end he was rewarded for that. It was the investors that kept throwing money at him and asking him to make it worth more. He was genius enough to do that through branding. The failure comes because the greed never stopped and they wanted to take things public far too early. Anyhow, you're blaming the wrong person. It's the fund managers that made out like bandits, and for a while, so did the greedy investors.

@@TheWebAdict when dealing with investors you have the mutual understanding of helping everyone profit because that investing... Good Venture Capitalists/Firms and banks know that pulling money out for personal use or just to early is bad because your personal money is tied in with other money to be use to build the company for a profit for every one...yeah you got people that want more but bottom line what he did effected his fundamentals before his ipo....so if you invest please understand that knowing the actions of a good and bad CEO is important for knowing if the price will fall due to bad actions, call, dismisses. Adam took money away from his own company and 2500 people..but softbank did it? Softbank who still invest in WeWork under the new CEO, that investor? Because investors& hedge funds cant pull any more money out then what they put in unless gain is made...adam on ther other hand with all that power shrank his company to where soft bank had to bail them out due to only one years loss (loss not even from operations cost) that on adam...not the investors....

Value is just whatever the last investor was willing to pay at that time. Just like any good or commodity. For unprofitable hyper growth companies so much of the valuation is based on the perceived potential. Once that is lost, then its value drops accordingly.

Stop shaming her for her voice. If I didn't read the comments, I would not have even noticed anything awry. She seems like an educated and well-informed woman. I watched the entire video and found it enlightening-it draws attention to how many individuals are easily consumed by wealth once their initial groundbreaking ideas start generating profit and garnering recognition.

Thank you. I didn’t notice anything off until I read the comments. Perhaps it seems odd for some people to watch an educational video about business without being screamed at or talked to by someone with typical salesman charisma. I preferred this video because it felt like a conversation. It felt authentic and honest (whether or not all the needed information was stated). With the typical salesman persona I feel the need to question everything they say including their own names.

This video is just a smoke screen to throw the public off. How in the world can a company that has not made a dime have a valuation of 50 billion? Then people invest money, write it off on their taxes as an investment, then watch it grow from said valuation ( remembering that the company has not made a dime). I can go deeper but to say she sounds educated is not a compliment. Who educated her is the crime! Wework is now owned by foreign investors that in turn own real estate in America; for now what seems to be pennies on the dollar. 6 billion does not equate to 49 billion!!!!!

Well to be fair, if you can make more than a rental income out of real estate acquisition you’re doing pretty well. The property retains or increases its value, and the income covers the mortgage rates. Some people argue that McDonald’s is just a vehicle for the same concept. Because even if fast food disappears, McDonald’s is still worth an insane amount.
