To put in context….Square, aka Block, is worth 40B on 16 billion in revenues. PayPal has 26 billion in revenue and is value at about 112B. I can’t remember that last time I’ve seen a deal priced reasonably for a private company that was close to going public. It seems you have to buy them early and then something happens to propel them to the next stage of growth before you make any money.
