If Uber goes public are you buying shares?

I will. I haven't seen a company have a worldwide impact like Uber in a long time

Why would they? They don't need the capital ...

Uber Raises Giant $1.2 Billion Funding Round At A $17 Billion Valuation | TechCrunch

To cash out maybe?? Depends on the IPO prospectus ...
I think that they are too easy to imitate they won't have an exclusive value proposition in 5 or 10 years.

They are easy to replicate, but if they have the money and clout to get deals signed with the major cities to be fully legal etc, then that makes it harder to get in at that point.

I'd probably get some shares.

17B is the pre-money valuation, the current valuation is 18.2B when you take into account the amount invested in this round.

All I see is bad press - It would just take just one large country to back down to the traditional cabs and it all turns to shit...

Do you think regular people have a shot at making bank on new stock against the greed and fraud of Wall Street? Watch what happens the day they go public then check the price a week later.

Uber is damn good when you need a ride, I sold my car off for their quality service.

No worries now. It is such a quality company I don't know who doesn't see the future of private transportation.

Won't be awhile for automatic cars so just hang slow and ride the wild wave of statements that will blow your mailbox.
