Hi Glenn....It really should be a book and maybe a movie someday. It is totally incomprehensible that a man with the kind of money he has either hires terrible managers for the companies he funds, or tries to run the companies himself!
He certainly has done some good with some of the building his company has funded in Seattle. I'm still not clear if the citizens will not be holding the bag for the Seahawk stadium, however.
So many companies....and nothing to show for it. Unless, of course, one supports the theory that perhaps he invested the money knowing losses would offset any gains in his entire portfolio....It doesn't make sense.
Charter, Go2Net, INSP, Stamp, CommTouch, Metricom, Telscan, Priceline, High Speed Access, Click2Learn...etc.... ALL down the drain....!
Take a look at this old post, with lots of his "investments"....
