the model of your idea seems perfect, unfortunally we live in a currupt world. this is not trading, this is not investing, this is stealing with government approval!
again, in a perfect world FB would be worth billions not on this one.
look what happen to block buster. they were top of the line world wide but they sink it and open a new one call netflix SAME owners same people Did you now that!? stop being blind open your eyes people FACEBOOK is going down.
You're missing the point, and your example for failure--which is highly, highly unlikely--could just as easily apply to ebay, so your argument is completely illogical.
Do you think the average citizen recognizes that ebay owns paypal? Not likely. Facebook is likely going to expand far beyond being an internet social network. That'll be what people associate the name with, but just like ebay, much of its growth will come outside of the social networking site; that is, if they play their cards right. Think mobile. Think operating systems. Get out of the social networking mindset.
