Samwer brothers without their parents would end up writing PHP in Bucarest. While I appreciate and enjoy Zalando, they'd never succeed as three guys coming to Germany from abroad and launching a business. Wirecard looked fishy in this regards... and indeed it was fishy. The secret sauce as a foreigner and someone not born with silver spoon is capital and resources of Russian intelligence.

- heisenberg1 2y agoWho cares how they made it? Guess this is the German attitude, they got lucky because of their parents. So lets punish them ; ) Anyway there is enough capital and enough rich people to found a company like open AI. Obviously Germany can afford to spend billions on other things...
- PinguTS 2y agoBTW: Samwer didn't made there money with Zalando. They made their money with a copycat of eBay and then selling it to eBay. They made that with many business. They made copycats of successful US business in other countries and then selling it back. Then they made there money with the Ringtone business. All this was way before Zalando.
