    why in the world would google buy yahoo?
    the only company that "might" buy yahoo is microsoft
    microsoft did make an offer a year ago but yahoo declined

    but i think yahoo will be doing better in the future with jerry yang as ceo

    Kind of interested since google only has a working cash flow of 33 million a year and Yahoo about 12, saying google will buy yahoo is like one street bum asking another street bum $1.50 for the bus.

    It is impossible because YAHOO is richer than GOOGLE

    incorrect cia own the majority of shares in google and the sec owns google so actually how much influence the cia has on the sec google and yahoo who knows really but its obviously its the cia children that make up the majority of google employees however their are more ignorant people a part of yahoo which makes it more interesting that civilians thing yahoo is profitable.

    Its amazing how many ignorant people are programing engineers about the big picture.

    But how much liquid money yahoo has is only 6 million which is pretty much what semel took so who knows maybe he killed a guy I don't want to tell you more at this time.

    My concern is that instead of pursuing this discussion I wouldn't want to start by turning this story into a debate I don't want to say more at this time.

    Not neccesarily. Google has Google Video, but still bought Youtube ;)

    Nevertheless, I doubt Google would invest in Yahoo if "its going down the drain"...

    yahoo is currently on a artificial lung right and as soon as the entitiy needs that liquidity back yahoo's plug will be pulled but the problem is all these companies are just great places to hide money. The 23 employees at yahoo actually think their doing something right now.

    I think the monopoly issue would be the biggest obstacle in Google buying Yahoo, if they wanted too.

    And I hope Yahoo don't go downhill. I make too much money from them everyday to do that. :D
