    Yeah and if I kept investing $100 a month in the lottery it could be worth $500M today. Or it could be worthless because, as this clown already knows, no one can predict the next 30 fucking years like some clairvoyant.

    OK, Biff, if you’re so smart, what’s the play right now? Why aren’t you investigating $100 a month in a small online bookstore that will one day be a tech supergiant?

      1998: I invested in this small company that makes this pretty decent way to search for things on the internet. Can’t imagine it will be able to compete with the big boys like Yahoo!Search or even edge out the cool new guys like AskJeeves, but I like that they have “dont be evil” as part of their company rules.

      2025: I own every detail of your lives. Our eyes are always watching. I’m richer than God. Our search engine is almost useless.
