A good example is Netflix, which racks up losses year after year, yet enjoys a sky high valuation. As of December 4th, Netflix stock is trading at USD 275 per share.
Before the recent stock market decline, the stock price was around USD 340 per share. Fantastic valuation for a company with no profits.

Amazon does invest a lot of its earnings in its Infrastructure (Data Centers, Network, Warehouses etc).
Companies like Walmart, Target and others are struggling to keep up with Amazon because they do NOT have a Cash cow like AWS.
For the next 5 years, the Cloud will be the growth engine for Amazon and Microsoft.

Chicken feed IMHO considering the bigger picture. At last count Uber was making losses of $2 bn per annum and counting. The valuation is still fucking sky high. Sometimes I wonder what these Wall Street guys smoke, I would like some of that.

Would publicly like to acknowledge assistance from Natty be, Smoothy, Banana be, Goferring and Blanq. Your feedback gave me a much better understanding of the situation in Jakarta.
When I travel which is only twice per year I try to give detailed and useful information to benefit all. This exchange of information can only make all our experiences better. Once again Thankyou.

Also, there is GO JEK which works like Uber. You can get a Bluebird through the GO JEK app also. You can also get a moto-taxi through GO JEK. I use this often to counter the notorious Jakarta traffic. Sure, one can argue about its relative safety, but it is way faster than anything else on wheels.
Finally, there is Grab, which works exactly like Uber. Grab bought out Uber's operations in all of SEA a few months back and in turn, Uber has taken a financial stake in Grab. Grab is a Singaporean venture.

The timezones for mongering in Indonesia are:
Pre 10 am, everyone is asleep, nothing is open, you will even struggle to find a cafe etc to get breakfast.
To 4 pm, options are mall hunting or online. Then most brothels and low end hotel based establishments open but don't expect them to be busy until much later.
6pm. Mid to high end mall hunting. Employed girls in food courts waiting for traffic to clear before bussing home
11 pm. High end bars and brothels start up getting busier as the night goes on. Blok M bars open with light crowds.
2 am onwards. Blok M, freelancers or discos (Fri and Sat nights).
Maybe walk to a near by mall for breakfast. Otherwise, Bluebird everywhere. Note that many taxis have look alike colours so check for a "Bluebird" label and motif.
Enjoy, G.

Posts: 6298We don't walk in these areas because there is nothing interesting to see. It's not like walking in Pattaya or Bangkok when you get to see girls everywhere and look into massage shops every few steps. I've walked from Lokasari to Hotel Travel to Berlian and Kimochi Mabes. I've walked Travel to Classic. I've walked Classic to Emporium to Malio. There's nothing to see and the streets are filthy. Bluebird taxi is your best friend in Jakarta. Dirt cheap.

Don't expect to be able to walk anywhere, and don't expect anything fun to start prior to 10 pm (Unless you want to go to brothels in the afternoon starting around 4 pm) and you will be fine in Jakarta. For me, the way to enjoy Jakarta is to sleep the entire day to be ready for the night. Then grab a taxi and head out. I know guys who spend all day long on Tinder lining up girls and other guys who like the brothels, but I like going out at night to the bars and chatting up free lance girls in person. I also find the karaokes to be good fun. I mainly go to BATS and CJs. Malio is good to play around with the dancers, but I haven't taken a girl upstairs there in years. I find the party atmosphere with the free lancers in the bar then take them to my place to be much more fun than a one hour brothel session. Then again, right now I have a girl living with me so I don't go anywhere.

I always feel comfortable & safe. The food is good. The people are friendly. There are many hotels to choose from at various price points. AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THE GIRLS ARE GREAT! as in very sexy & very amourous in bed. The only negatives as far as I can see is that everything is spread out far & wide, there is not much to do during the day, and the traffic during the day and early evening is very congested. Think of Jakarta as a more exotic, less dangerous Manila with better food and arguably better looking girls.
