Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against shared office spaces... but its hardly a “revolutionary” concept, and its been laughable from day one that fools were throwing the kind of money they were at it...

It is literally applying the sleeping room/flop house concept to office space, and its nothing really new.

Exactly!

Just a variation on an old-fashioned real estate play.

That’s what the tech generation, divorced from history, and non-conversant with basic business ideas, gets wrong. They think that everything they come up with is revolutionary and high tech....and it isn’t. WeWork is simply shared office space. Shared office space that is nice, with some amenities.

But WeWork ain’t Google.... lol

It sort of reminds me of FitBit. A very good basic product that fitness people like. A lot.

But it ain’t gonna compete with Apple. Or improve the health of the entire world (one of the taglines they used over the years).

Not everyone can be a visionary.

And WeWork ain’t visionary.

Can’t you just go to the local library or Starbucks and have essentially the same thing - for free. And have more than just kombucha.
