Adam Neumann, Of WeWork fame. Oh my the saga and fleecing he has perpetuated. There will be a episode about him on American Greed. Horrible person. But the graft was spectacular.
And looking back all he did was fleece Saudi Arabia and Masayoshi Son’s Vision Fund (Softbank). Tens of billions invested. All wasted. But Neumann walked with a failed IPO and a billion.
Top notch work.
At least there was never a IPO so retail investors were largely unharmed. Totally fucked over the employees. But they had to know the house of cards was made of rice paper.
