A "Lucky" Building in Palo Alto for Startups (nytimes.com)

This is like one of those arbitrage opportunities that disappear as soon as they become public knowledge. Now that the owners think of the building as a "kingmaker," they'll demand such an exorbitant price (in stock) from startups that want to rent it that only a desperate one would take the deal. So paradoxically the one thing you can be sure of is that the next Google won't be coming out of this building.


I heard these people are wannabe jokes. They're iranian carpet dealers that deal with tech startups like they're in a middle-east bazaar.
