Facebook cash flow is still in the RED

[tech4]

Facebook took in today $500 million USD from Goldman Sach (Us Investment Banker that was bailed out by the Obama administration for about $13 billion USD).

Basically to say, the US government is bailing out Facebook indirectly.

Could this be a bad sign?

------------
Amid the SEC investigating how many shareholders FB has, and if financial information is disclosed, what will happen?

Banks will still buy FB stocks, if the banks failed, they will be bail out by US government.

Value of Facebook? Still is a private matter, what is known is, FB cash flow is still in the RED.

FB still on emergency life support! As of January 2011 Facebook is not profitable, they do not have enough cash to sustain operations.

A $500 million cash injection will last until Dec of 2012.

Will another Social Network come along?

Will Goldman Sach need another bailout?

Will Facebook ever make cash flow?

When will the "sources" close to the matter become official statements?

When will IPO happen?

I don't understand the valuation behind FB to be honest.

Sure they have 500M members. How many of them are actually active?

The average user just logs on to FB here and there and doesn't really generate much revenue for them.

By the same token, Bebo should be worth at least 10% of Facebook with over 100 million users. AOL sold it back to original owner for $10 million USD.

That's right 100 million users account was sold for a mere $10 million.
Facebook with 500 million users account is worth $50 billion? or should be $50 million?

INSANE 1. Facebook is valued higher than Ebay. I have more confident in Ebay than 10 Facebook sites!

Insane 2. Facebook still need cash because its in the RED
This is as of January 2011, selling shares for CASH. Not a good sign when it is still cash negative, those $1-$2 billion in revenues for 2010 must ENRON FAKE.

Insane 3. Now Zack can cash in his $6 billion dollars if he's smart enough to do it.

I have a feeling that the revenue they are saying for 2010 $1-$2 billion is FAKE. Anyone feeling the same? If it is real revenues, why not go public and cash in your $6-9 billion USD ASAP.

Why wait? The answer -
1)cash negative
2)not profitable
3)fictitious revenues

I have a big feeling that this is the next ENRON, is now being funded indirectly with government money.

Here's something to think about. Goldman Sach will buy off individual buyers or make them a collective, basically under an umbrella, so if there are over 500 share holders, FB will need to go public with financial details, but with Goldman Sach in the picture, Facebook can now stay private with their financial.

Would anyone guess why they want to stay private?
My guess: FRAUD Revenue reporting!

My own FB usage over the last few days via Cityville has expanded a hundred fold. It's almost not even a website anymore, it's like a plasmatic night lite/telephone directory /Tv arcade channel.
