You’re missing the point. Those clients you visited had old offices because they acted rationally and paid an appropriate amount for them (and didn’t receive subsidies). You were paying under market for a cool, new place. I bet you and those others with similar mindsets would be priced out if WeWork tried making a profit.

- newswasboring 7y agoI know this comment too will get downvoted but I find it weird that a genuine question is getting downvotes. To my knowledge the whole thing is made up of design and actual physical things. Designs can be open sourced, right? So how much do these things actually cost to obtain?
- johnchristopher 7y agoIsn't there a middle ground between grey and old brown'ish offices and wework though ?
- tomnipotent 7y agoYes, it's called Google-level profit margins and a willingness to spend it on things like this.
