  @lady_valor_07 @Yahoo @MSN I bought my first computer around 1987-88. Best Buy signed me up with AOL. I had the computer maybe 3-6 months. AOL flagged me saying they could not provide me service because my Computer wasn't fast enough or big enough to use their service. I knew absolutely nothing about comp.

  @kermankohli @Banana3Stocks For me it was. And I owned some great sticks in my past. I bought AOL in late 90s. AAPL in 2010. NVDA in 2017. And TSLA in 2019. Micron was by far the easiest in terms of conviction! I have never been so convicted in a stock as I was with Micron. It didn’t make sense to me that it wasn’t trading so much higher.

  @RaminNasibov Does AOL count? Or BBS? Never did much with the latter, but plenty with the former. I also vaguely remember my dad had a CompuServe account. Email addresses were basically a string of numbers as I recall.

  @firstadopter The deal makes total sense to me. Arbitrageurs putting deal likelihood above 50% of going through. Can only make sense to compare to AOL X Time Warner if you think one of FOX or Roku has a bad destiny coming. FOX pays about 6% interest on debt.

  The Greatest Corporate Losses in History: The 25 Worst Single-Year Losses Ever Recorded Financial history is often taught through famous failures such as Enron, Lehman Brothers, WorldCom, or Bear Stearns. Yet many of the largest corporate losses ever recorded were far larger than those household-name disasters. In several cases, a single year's loss exceeded $100 billion when adjusted for inflation. The list of the worst annual losses reveals a striking pattern: nearly all occurred during either the dot-com and telecom collapse of 2000–2002 or the Global Financial Crisis of 2008–2009. While some losses reflected genuine economic destruction, many were massive write-downs of acquisitions made during periods of speculative excess. Below are the 25 largest annual corporate losses ever recorded, ranked by inflation-adjusted value. The Top 25 Largest Annual Corporate Losses of All Time 1. **AOL Time Warner (2002)** — Lost $98.7 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$143.1 billion** today. The failed AOL-Time Warner merger remains the largest annual corporate loss ever recorded. 2. **AIG (2008)** — Lost $99.3 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$127.6 billion** today, driven by the mortgage and derivatives meltdown. 3. **JDS Uniphase (2001)** — Lost $56.1 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$104.4 billion** today after the telecom bubble collapsed. 4. **Fannie Mae (2009)** — Lost $74.4 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$93.7 billion** today. 5. **Fannie Mae (2008)** — Lost $59.8 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$64.2 billion** today. 6. **Freddie Mac (2008)** — Lost $50.8 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$54.5 billion** today. 7. **Qwest Communications (2002)** — Lost $35.9 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$44.8 billion** today. 8. **General Motors (2007)** — Lost $38.7 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$41.6 billion** today. 9. **Royal Bank of Scotland (2008)** — Lost $34.9 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$37.5 billion** today. 10. **General Motors (1992)** — Lost $23.5 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$37.4 billion** today. 11. **General Motors (2008)** — Lost $30.9 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$33.2 billion** today. 12. **Deutsche Telekom (2002)** — Lost €24.6 billion nominally (~$24 billion USD at the time), equivalent to over **$30.0 billion** today following massive 3G spectrum write-downs. 13. **Vivendi Universal (2002)** — Lost €23.3 billion nominally (~$23 billion USD at the time), equivalent to over **$30.0 billion** today after its debt-fueled acquisition spree unraveled. 14. **Citigroup (2008)** — Lost $27.7 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$29.7 billion** today. 15. **Vodafone Group (2006)** — Lost $25.8 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$29.2 billion** today. 16. **Freddie Mac (2009)** — Lost $25.7 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$26.9 billion** today. 17. **Vodafone Group (2002)** — Lost $19.3 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$24.4 billion** today. 18. **United Airlines (2005)** — Lost $21.2 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$24.3 billion** today. 19. **Nippon Telegraph and Telephone (NTT) (2002)** — Lost over ¥2 trillion nominally, equivalent to over **$21.0 billion** today as Japan's telecom bubble burst. 20. **Nakheel (2009)** — Lost $20.9 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$21.8 billion** today amid Dubai's property collapse. 21. **UBS (2008)** — Lost $18.7 billion nominally, equivalent to approximately **$20.1 billion** today, marking the largest annual loss in Swiss corporate history at the time. 22. **Credit Suisse (2008)** — Lost over $18.5 billion nominally, equivalent to over **$20.0 billion** today, hit heavily by toxic mortgage-backed securities.
