She may be a con artist but as an owner of a BBC I would greatly appreciate impregnating her right in the uterus. She took white boi money and I'd bet 100 bucks she takes big black cocks.

I'm just amazed that Stanford Business wants to put their name on that picture.

>>54914231
She's a regular conman but the rich people that were on the top of her ponzi scheme pyramid paid top dollars to get her shilled all over american media so that trust fund babbies and other idiots gave up their money.
Anyone with half a brain and a bit of knowledge about medicine knew that what she offered was impossible.

From reading about her over the years, this is how I imagine it went down.

who the fuck? she serously looks like a psychopathic clown.

her eyes are bugging out of her damn skull, and greasy peanut head just ties it right together.
>>
>>54914466
based on the fact that they didn't get found out for being fraudulent by investors, >>54914314
this guy is probably a little more accurate. it appears to have been a coordinated scheme to suck in venture capital, as many bio-techs are (Vital Therapies is another one that comes to mind). it probably started with her actually thinking she could accomplish her idea and some investors who were willing to gamble, and as she talked more and more the money kept coming in so the initial investors kept quiet, with the goal of eventually taking the company public.

she, of course, will be the scapegoat with her jewish seed capital walking off into the dark, but such is the nature of deals with satan. I'm also sure she started blowing plenty of the company's cash once she started realizing the company was not going to succeed, so it's don't cry for me argentina.

Nothing to do with her looks, and besides she has amassed an entire cavalcade of celebrity directors by this point.

It's all financial. With cheap money you can run even a complete scam "startup" indefinitely. Truth is the money has run out, and all the unicorns are are being revealed as donkeys with plastic dildos glued onto their heads -- financially speaking.

Theranos was just one of the biggest non-software unicorns. Windups likes this are happening left and right and the reality is upwards of 75% of San Francisco has a total net worth of 0.

The entire tech sector is going to need a bailout/chap 11 within the next 18 months. Why do you think the industry "leaders" are so shitless of Trump?

What does she do now anyway? I mean a few million lost on a startup, you could probably move on, but $4.5 billion?

How do you walk away and keep the wardrobe?

It's a woman, running a start up in Palo Alto. Don't give me shit about not having anything to do with her looks. If it was a black woman you wouldn't even have heard of her.

>What does she do now anyway?
Disappear with the money she managed to embezzle through companies that gave services to her startup.

thats just worse than racism. with racism at least they judge you on the merits of what you're doing. with nepotism they simply turn you away because you don't know person X. a much much smaller club to crack.

Have you ever been around VCs or "artisan coders"? The vast majority of them are way below average intelligence and have no skill or achievements worth mentioning. Despite this, they've somehow convinced themselves that they're the next Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerberg.

Just read the comments on Hacker News for hundreds of examples.
>>
>>54911576
>What's the TL;DR behind this saga?
If you're in the right undergraduate club at the right school and get the right job you flop around for a few year spouting the shit VCs want to here.

>yeah, so?
...hawk a scalable solution to a not terribly important problem and you have yourself a START UP

>Also why is she such a cutie patootie?
Yeah. Nah. Although I'd probably stick it in during some less-than-consensual scenario when she's weeding the garden at Martha Stewart prison. Child support payments would be huge.
>>
8/10 would rape heartily

>>54915331

yeah, it's like they think con artistry is based on looks when she's a 6/10 and has an elite background

>bleached hair
she's a little too old for that
>>
>>54911576
To be everyone saying 4.5 billion, she has 50% stake in the company that Forbes once valued at 9 billion. Her net worth was probably not close to that considering they only actually raised like 800 thousand.
