"Amazon's annual report broke down the $166.7 million in restricted marketable securities into three categories. The company pledged $77.6 million as collateral for "stand-by letters of credit" that guarantee its obligations for certain off-balance-sheet property leases. The company has pledged $48.5 million for a swap agreement that hedges the foreign-exchange rate risk on a portion of its euro-denominated convertible debt. And it has pledged a further $40.7 million for other real-estate leases that also aren't on the company's balance sheet. In a chart included in its annual report, Amazon disclosed it has total liabilities and commitments of $3.72 billion, including off-balance sheet obligations, compared with the $3.08 billion of total liabilities shown on Amazon's balance sheet." You're beating a dead horse. I won our bet. I'm surprised you haven't conceded such, with your character and all. Actually, I won big time. In addition, the cash drain continues as I have predicted. Take the $100 million from AOL out and the firm is done now rather than a little later. It is time you concede this firm is not anything that you ever expected it to be. It is was I expected it to be. By the way, Amazon violated SEC diclosure rules in its filings in fiscal 2000.
