I've officially been accepted into the principal's licensure program at Indiana Wesleyan University. In about 18 months, I will be your princi-PAL.

how does that work?

once you finish the program you get the job? or do you get the job first then you gotta get the licenses?

This is probably a good Riccio question. I was reading a little about the new Forbes Richest Americans list and found something that didn't quite make sense.

Snapchat has been valued at $16billion. How? It's basically $1billion less than Twitter, 1/5th as much as American Express, how is that even possible?

[DRiccio21]

something is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

companies can be inflated because if there is more $ out there than there are great/innovative companies to invest in then more money piles into less names, inflating that particular companies value.

markets go thru cycles, booms/busts. just because something is worth 16 bil today doesn't mean its worth 16 bil a year from now. it could be worth 50 bil or it could be worth 0 or anywhere in between. they don't ring a bell when things are 'properly valued'. private companies have a bit different situation than public companies too which is a longer winded story.

right now alot of those valuations, including my own, are getting slashed pretty badly as the markets correct. not a fun time but all part of the cycles

My expert take is that Snapchat dude should sell ASAP!!!

in 2013 FB offered them 3 Billion and they turned it down. at the time it was considered wildly overvalued.

what we think isn't relevant.
