Larry Apple how is this deal progressing for you?

Is like comparing Apples to scissors to dice , to zebras . 

If you believed the absolute ceiling on Apple was $500/share, it would make no financial sense to buy it for $501/share.

Close to Apple, close to new Google campus, price is relatively cheaper than prime area.School's not great, but with area improving, will it improve together?

Nothing wrong with either thing but it's like comparing apples to oranges. 

Anyway, I've found that you if let people "have one bite of the apple" (a quick conversation and request not to do it again) as a courtesy, most of the time they get the message.

Here in Pittsburgh new investments by Google, Apple, Facebook and Autodesk is a true testament to the growing infrastructure here.

I would intern at what ever real estate companies your interested in.My daughter was interested in finance.. and she interned during collage with a high level appraisal company that did apprasing for emanate domain cases.. and she worked on the one in Napa CA were the state and city bought out a big swatch of the napa river for flood control project and many business had to be relocated from hotel to shopping center to car dealer all of them needed to be valued.. it was high level work she enjoyed it.she then went on to graduate top of her class at Davis CA.. in managerial economics degree and promptly got snapped up my Intel after offers from Apple and Micro soft.now 14 years later she is a SEnior controller and a Dave Ramsey disciple which means at her age home just about paid for 2 kids in grade school and NO debt and a ton of savings and max's out her 401k.. she has little interest in real estate she owns one rental but only rents it to family. that was her path.  

Really apples and oranges. 

To calculate "Net Return" as NOI/DP is IMO mixing apples and oranges.
