Why? Because bankers. This was going to be one of the largest IPOs of all time. This means a huge amount of fees for bankers. In addition, WeWork is an opportunity for those bankers to also win business putting together the various kinds of debt WeWork throws off. When bankers want a deal that will generate a huge amount of fees for them, they're not going to tell a potential client they won't get the valuation they want or that he needs curb his spending habits and reduce his control. That's a great way to lose a deal. No, they tell Adam he's a genius, We Company is revolutionary, and once the company is public he should buy a second jet just in case the first one is grounded because a mishap like a cereal box of weed being found on it.
