Nobody seems to want to answer this question: Message 19097783 Let me ask a simpler (?) question: Assume you have a 25 million bucks with which to buy a company. Would buying a company increase the value of your 25 million, since it would be bringing in future profits (and you're making less than 1% in a money market now)? If so, how would you calculate the worth? I assume buying a co. with a high growth rate of ROE would get you less company that the opposite...but is there anyway of taking a stab with those facts as to how much you'd be increasing the worth of your 25 million? Thanks, anyone!
