So my thinking is their debt is not just from the initial purchase. When a company losing money goes for an IPO, it better have huge upside potential. I'd say AFFs best days are well behind them. If they haven't made money yet, I doubt they ever will.

But like was said earlier, I'm an armchair billionaire.
Thanks. I hope that the kung fu expert Slappin Fish read what you just posted.
