Comment Re:Open Source spending $30M on branding? (Score 1) 278

Ah not-for-profit.
Reminds me of a story.
A US city wanted a non-profit to buy an apartment complex (to rent for mostly university students). It had to be non-profit (keeps costs down or something).
A guy buys it and said it will be non-profit.
Gives himself 1 million dollar salary, his wife 1 million dollar salary, and same to daughter. But it was non-profit on paper.

Some of their stores are in really really prime real estate locations. They can just sell 1 store at a time and remain profitable for at least 50 years.
I don't know what their strategy is now...
