Isn't every terrible business decision a gamble that "could have paid off" if one thing or another happened?

Being wrongly infatuated with a concept as Meta seems with metaverse is not a gamble IMHO.

It seem more like a stupid decision done by someone that became successful by being in the right place at the right time. And now they want to prove that it wasn't an accident and that they have it takes to repeat hence become infatuated with an absurd idea that we want to be inside the FB world.
