they say they own $450k worth of google stock?
- jrockway 8y agoHey, almost as much as any one of the 100,000 employees! I am sure the process of self-eating is nearly complete!
- jacobush 8y ago"202.345.117 Years until GWEI fully owns Google."
- myroon5 8y agoTheir listed share price is outdated by years. I'd be skeptical

- todd3834 8y ago> Amount of USD: 405.413,19 That’s kind of a weird way to format it. So I double checked the math. > Google Shares owned by GWEI: 819 > Current Google Share Price : 495.01 USD The current share price is actually $1,287.58 So they own $1,054,528.02 of Google stock?
- cobookman 8y agoThere was a stock split in 2014. Not sure if there's share splits before then. So > 1mil. Goog has grown 957% since may 2005. So their 405k is now worth ~4mil.
- chillacy 8y agoEuropean-style formatting.
- MattBearman 8y agoIIRC most of mainland Europe formats numbers this way ('.' for thousand separator ',' for decimal separator) Strangely there doesn't seem to be a 'falsehoods programmers believe about numbers' post, but if there were, this would definitely feature :)
- oliwarner 8y agoMost? A very large chunk use spaces or thin-spaces as thousand separators. By GDP, at least, periods are probably in the minority.
- metafunctor 8y agoGermany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium at least appear to use a period as the thousands separator. Quite of lot of population and GDP there already.
- 317070 8y agoAt least Belgium officially uses spaces as thousands seperator [0] [0] http://ond.vvkso-ict.com/vvksomainnieuw/brochure/Vouwblad%20BIN-normen%20Zwart.pdf http://ond.vvkso-ict.com/vvksomainnieuw/brochure/Vouwblad%20...
- swiley 8y agoThe spaces is an iso standard. Most Europeans I’ve talked to use “,” for the radix and “.” For the separator. Personally I really like spaces since they’re unambiguous.
