I could buy charlton for $40 billion and get it into the premiership and keep it "going strong" it doesn't make it a good valuation.kentaddick said:
people said the same of instagram, which facebook bought for $1 billion but is still going strong. Whatsapp has been going longer and nearly everyone has it on their smartphonesHuskaris said:This is possibly the most ridiculous valuation of anything ever.

Facebook then buy this new messaging service.
