Since 2018. Can't help thinking that if with that money they had bought Apple shares, it would be now 3 times more.

- martimarkov 2y agoIt would kinda be funny if they did as they probably not want Apple to get fined as now they’d be shareholders
- zelphirkalt 2y agoWould also be funny, if they were allowed to increase the penalty, based on how much they could have done with that money during that time. Opportunity cost.
- r00fus 2y agoThe back taxes accrue interest - IIRC like €1.2B
- raverbashing 2y agoEven at their market cap, I don't think this would be trivial to operationalize

- gopkarthik 2y agoWhat's ironic is that the escrow account is now lesser because they used that money to buy eurozone government bonds which have since fallen.
