Your math assumes zero operational costs and near 100% use rate of every scooter. What about damage, theft, liability, staff, IT, amortization costs?

- TomMarius 9y agoYes, that pushes it to... let's say a year. Still impressive, IMHO.
- bufferoverflow 9y agoWhy "let's say a year" and not 50 years? Or never? You just made a number up without knowing any operating costs.
- TomMarius 9y agoI made an educated guess. "Never" might happen just as well as 1 year, but it's unlikely considering other similar companies (we can't measure business skills of the operator); also we're talking about how it'd be if the business is a success. 1 year is more likely than 1 month; 50 years is extremely improbable (this business will probably either succeed or fail within just a few years, again, considering other similar companies).
