Yes, but if you look at a site like facebook. It has 300 million accounts and it can’t make money on it’s customers. They are burning faster than they can reap cash. The fp board probably breaks even or not much better on it’s investment. It’s not that you can measure value in dollars, it’s just that the bank wants dollars back in return.
