What was the smartest Corporate Buyout of All Time?

For the record, I got outbid on all of these :(
$28.50 for Marvel wasnt enough I guess.

I prefer ludwig for content and blah blah blah, he's a lot more 'extroverted' so he can pull off these big things with loads of other top streamers, while atrioc cant, he's sort of stuck like a barnacle to ludwig but yea, aside from all that, atrioc is a lot funnier and 'cooler' of a person unless youre literally 12 yrs old and have no adult experience/humour (not that ludwigs content is shitty for kids, but more enjoyable for them than boomer atrioc would be lmfao)

It's crazy seeing such big numbers like this.

7:55 it is roughly the same scale of the halo franchise, just a larger gap, but the ratio is still roughly the same. Halo increased by roughly 16,667% in value, whereas ESPN scaled at 17,773%. Each number (both buy price and profits received) is roughly 6.2 times higher in ESPN than in Bungie, therefore not drastically switching the percent increase in value.

To add to this list the SalesForce acquisition of Slack is a cool story, less the aquisition itself but how the owner of Slack actually started Flickr, sold the image sharing website to start a Games company called Tiny Speck who made one game that flopped but during development the devs made a program to simplify internal communication (Slack), massive pivot from the CEO to a communication platform which turned Slack into a $27.7 Billion payout.

OH MY GOD! I remember my great-grandpa telling me that on his first shift at work at Chipotle, right after the Civil War, an old man had come in and ordered a single Chicken Chipotle burrito. My great-grandpa was young and inexperienced, and he accidentally put in two servings of steak instead of chicken. On his deathbed, he told me that was his last and only regret, and he made me promise to take vengeance on the man who had done him such a heinous wrong. In tears, I agreed, vowing to do so.

Funny thing is that 30 mil to 5 bil is pretty much the same increase as 188 mil to 31 bil. They both increased about 166x, so the Master Chief comparison works for the ESPN acquisition too. edit: The PayPal acquisition is also up by 166x, wtf is going on?

[@Brandongamesall]

I agree Atrioc, you had me believe the greatest acquisition was Nvidia acquiring Brandon Ewing

[@texo456]

It has been 3 years since this came out and I didnt notice this. For the ESPN one, it is quite a large number, but not necessarily as big of a percent difference as the halo one nearly was. 188 mil times 10 is 1.8 bil, so it would be in the range of about 170 times the amount invested. However, with Bungie, 30 mil times 10 is only 300 mil, so it would actually be near exactly 166 times the amount invested. So while the amount of money invested is vastly different, the %ROI is around the same comparatively. Granted, at such high levels of investment, 400 extra percent means 750 mil or so, soooo😂
