tysa43038yYahoo is the poster boy for bad decisions. they bought all the wrong companies and ignored all the great ones.

beto1188yTotally agree with the spirit of the post but for the record, we can't compare the $40 bi in 2008 with the $4.7 bi now. Apples and oranges. Microsoft wanted all of Yahoo (with the profitable parts as well) where Verizon only bought the "bad" parts. Alibaba is by itself valued at over $60 bi now but isn't part of what Verizon bought.
