- strictnein 9y agoI mean, we're comparing 2008 money to 2018. If you put $45 billion in the stock market in 2008 when this offer was rejected it'd be worth ~$90 billion now. If they were given MS stock as part of the deal, that $45 billion would be worth around $130 billion. So, still probably a bad idea to reject the offer.
