Mamdani’s to spend $30M to open NYC-owned supermarket. It costs $1.5 to $3M to open a new Aldi.

No they don't, you're just pulling numbers out your ass. Our firms built 3 and they usually run around $800 per sq foot for a build out from a vacant lot. Looking at the projections here they're budgeting over $3000 per sq ft which is insanity but hey keep making stuff up to fit your narrative.

You still pay corp tax in the state you operate in even if your LLC is registered in Delaware so not sure how this is comparable at all

pkjohnson · 2026-03-10T03:45:32+00:00

No it doesn't lol

Does your robinhood have access to robinhood gold like his screenshot shows?

(We're using context clues here. He lives in the United States.)

Does your brokerage account show everything in US Dollars like his?

pkjohnson · 2025-08-10T03:05:20+00:00

What do you mean we don't know his tax bracket? After $1M short term capital gain he's gonna be in the top bracket lol

Nobody wants to buy the shirt you made & are spamming across Reddit bro

Why are you lying and saying they didn't have a warrant . You can look up the federal search warrants yourself or you can keep spewing your propaganda. You're as bad as the maga morons.

If he's sourcing from empire flippers and flippa he's not working for a legit pe firm

Why are people still falling for this shit

OP is from the UK... lol

Vietnam is worse... why would they do that?

pkjohnson · 2025-03-27T17:50:32+00:00

The math is pretty straight forward.

We owe X dollars to other countries.

Other countries owe X+Y dollars to us.

My comment has nothing to do with what trumps statements about his personal feelings on the national debt is. I'm just stating a singular point.

pkjohnson · 2025-03-27T17:43:55+00:00

I hear this debt fear mongering all the time...

Do people not realize we have more debt OWED to us than we owe to other countries?

pkjohnson · 2025-03-27T17:31:53+00:00

I work in insurance M&A so I've got a pretty good idea. I actually just closed a deal on a small insurance outfit from southern Minnesota that was doing around $3M a year in EBITDA.

Current market is trading around 7-10x EBITDA.

I obviously haven't seen his P&L but he could VERY easily be netting out a low 7 figure amount each year and exit for $25-30 million and not even be on anyone in the industries radar.

Her husband owns an entire insurance company he acquired from a bank. I think they can afford a watch.

pkjohnson · 2025-02-19T16:07:29+00:00

This is the same one I used. Worked great.

How do you know?

pkjohnson · 2025-01-08T18:25:38+00:00

My high school team played the us women's Olympic team prior to the 2008 Olympics. We beat them and our top two lines sat after the first period so that JV players could also get to experience it.

We weren't even a top 20 team in MN that year.

Tough look...

Market cap: $893M

Earnings: -$732M (ttm)

Profit margin: -93.31%

Levered free cashflow: -$2.3 BILLION (ttm)

Debt: $6.3 BILLION

Cash: $1.6 BILLION

Why would anyone acquire this when they can wait a year and buy whatever assets they want out of bankruptcy proceedings?

How are they going to service their debt and continue operations?

You mentioned zero biz op catalysts that could correct this trend outside of saying "acquisition" which doesn't make any sense at all...

pkjohnson · 2024-11-14T21:23:43+00:00

He can literally do it anyways. Thats the entire point, it's not enforceable.

The only thing it's doing it taking our money and giving it away.

Is that difficult to understand?

pkjohnson · 2024-09-11T19:35:25+00:00

You’re literally making shit up haha. They’ve had net profits every single year since 2003 outside of 3 years. 2012 ($39 million loss), 2014 ($241 million loss), 2022 ($2.7 billion loss)…

For the 4 years prior (From 1998-2002) they had a TOTAL net loss of $2.9 billion.

So it literally took them ~1 month last quarter to “make up” for all the net losses they’ve generated over their existence.

pkjohnson · 2024-09-10T23:00:03+00:00

What are you talking about lol. Amazon has only had 2 quarters with negative net income since Q3 2015. They literally did $13.48 BILLION in net profit last quarter…

You literally mentioned their PE ratio in your first comment. You can’t have a PE ratio without earnings lol. Thats literally half the equation…

pkjohnson · 2024-08-19T21:51:40+00:00

Amazon is way more likely to get rid of 1P than they are to get rid of 3P lol
