You sold out to the BRITS?!?! Oh, DaDakota...don't you know that this is the first step in a massive British plan to regain control of the United States? What they plan to do is brainwash America's youth through subliminal video game messages, thus turning millions of American children against their home country. These brainwashed children will eventually join the military, give out precious military secrets to the British Isles, and revolt against the military leaders, thus gaining control of the entire military in preparation for one final mass invasion from which the country will never recover...Don't you see this?? Congrats, DaDakota. Twenty years from now when we're all having tea and crumpets with our pinkies sticking out and eating kidney pies, we'll have you to thank...
DaDa, How long do you have to hold onto their shares for?? And they bought for what relative to present future earnings? (If you don't mind telling of course) Another part of my financial company is we buy mid size companies, predominantly manufacturing firms though. I have a healthcare network that I own that I'm negotiating the sale of as well.
Wow, congrats DaDa, that is sweet! Good to see hardwork paying off! Could you slip a few bucks this way, you do know we're going to start bumming money off of you, don't you?
...and the sale proceeds in your jeans ...and a higher salary (we hope) ...and big bonuses ...and less risk ...and more capital ...and stock options ...and you now have the brits to blame should times get rough ...and company-paid business trips to England during the FA cup ...and I'm sure there's more -- DD is a good negotiator me thinks. Hmmm....seems like a good deal to me. Congrats. Its good to see a BBS member excel.
Dakota, congrats. I was just wondering how you got into game design. Were you a big time computer game player,who decided to try to do something related to what you loved? Were you mainly a computer guy who looked around and that was a way to make some money? What type of people start doing this type of work? I notice that it seems like you have artists and also code writing type guys. The two groups seem somewhat different?
"Present future earnings"? I'm guessing this is a typo, or you meant to say the present value of expected future cash flows... If not, I wish you good luck in your business, cuz you'll need it.
