>I'm calling it now: investors are gonna get burned hard on this one.

I'm in my late 40s. I'm Gen X. I lived through the glory days of the dotcom boom, when investors got burned for tons of money. But from the ashes of those bullshit companies, we got Amazon, Google, etc., which made investors rich beyond belief.

SoftBank’s Masayoshi Son made a bet on Alibaba ($20 million, its stake now worth $72 billion), and he’s been living off that wealth ever since. I haven’t seen him make any good bets lately. investors don’t really care if 100 of the shit they throw don’t stick because all they need is just one.
