HQ2 Upates

Bezos could announce that he has cured cancer and his stock would soar.

Ours is a consumption driven economy predicated on supply, variety, price, convenience and innovation. Bezos figured out a way to excel at all of them.

He bought Whole Paycheck for $13.7B and made $13.4B on the announcement alone.

Furthermore, wouldn't it be something if the Rite Aid corporate headquarters located at Camp Hill Pennsylvania just outside of Harrisburg the state capitol becomes HQ2 ?

Mind boggling.

Mind boggling.

Sorry Dano for having molested your mind but then again it seems these day's everybody is getting molested by somebody and I didn't want you to feel left out.

Wouldn’t it be something if they had the loose end of the TP coming off the top of the roll toward the front instead of from behind? Might even have cups with the company logo for the water cooler. Most places use plain cups. IMAGINE!

Latest projections are out as to possible locations for the new Amazon headquarters better known as HQ2 and to no one's surprise they're all in the southern states and include major concession packages. On the other side however Wisconsin in order to lure Foxconn to the state had to hoark up a 4 billion dollar plus concessions hairball which according to some published reports will take at least 25 years for Wisconsin to get it's money back and that's under a best case scenario. Keep in mind that the guy who owns the company has gone around promising similar projects in India, Brazil and Indonesia and and they're still waiting for the guy to make good on them.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

India, Brazil, Indonesia, the United States. One of these things is not like the other.

Latest? No link?

Nobody wants to pay to heat warehouses(or office spaces) in Wisc... granted it doesn't cost as much to cool in summer... but WISC can't be a real option unless of course locals are really just giving it away.

Memphis for HQ2 only if BEZO AMZ is planning on buying FDX Express...
