Does anyone have any idea how Max could top PayPal with Slide?

Flickr -- that other photo-sharing site -- sold for, what, around $30 million? Paypal sold for $1.54 billion.



It looks like he only owned 2.3% of PayPal, so he 'only' made $34 million dollars.

Yeah, you are right. I think his $34 million stake was in eBay so it grew overtime. That's my guess.


Inflation!
