I am no one to appraise someone else's questions, but in my opinion, your post # 6224 Message 5779891 was very good and I hope I can speak for many on this thread, it was received with the intention of an honest question, stating a point, and (for the lack of another term) very gentleman like.
Thank you!
I would like to offer a possible comparison to your point about "you can not valuate a signed contract since revenues are generated according to usage".
I might be wrong, but I think MCI started out simply charging for usage. Another would be any toll road or toll bridge. Yes, granted some of these have not even approached profitability, much less break-even; however, there are more then a few that do generate profits.
As a mater of fact, we have several "Private Toll Roads" right here in Southern California and, please believe me, no one would have invested that type of money, to build a road, if the numbers had not worked out in advance. How much was government subsidy? At the present time, I do not know the answer to that. However it is the concept of a "Private Toll Road" that I am offering. The bottom line is "Positive Revenues".
