    He should have floated, it must be worth at least 50 billion.
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

        He's a self promoting arse, but fair play to him. How many of our Plan B's are worth £87m?

          merely at clientco for the entertainment

            To be fair I use this site quite a lot and find it pretty useful. Format is pretty ugly with all the different sized fonts and icons etc but been useful to me. I thought it would go for more based on the trend for popular sites being valued way over any income they generate (but that is for floatations as pointed out already I guess)

              Good luck to him. At least he got off his @rse.

                Its because he is a self promoting arse he is considerably richer than yow.


                he made money by saving the public money how ethical and useful can a business be.

                use the site a lot.

                  He was just on 5Live defending himself over the sale of MSE, says he will still be editor.

                  Fair play to him, can't argue that he isn't passionate about what he does. Says he'll keep on going until there is financial education on the national curriculum so he gets my vote for that.


                  qh
                  He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.

                  I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

                    Indeed.

                    And he has good SEO positioning as well; if you google: money
                    he's the first result.
