    Just curious if there is a slightest chance google will go bankrupt, maybe in a thousand years?

    Maybe after they take over the world and they use Google branded nukes when the aliens attack, but it all goes horribly wrong, destroying life as we know it.

    Its possible that they might get sued for something in the future that leads to many other businesses following suit. The bigger you get the harder it is to cover every legal angle.

    i thinking the founders are slowly rising up to be fierce competitors of Bill Gates.

    There is no way we can even predict 1 year, not to say 1000 years. Also no point predicting such, as it serve no purpose, I rather predict next month what will be Google Stock price

    It's possible yes but no one can predict something like that. There could be a thousand reasons.

    well, if something or someone messes with their servers and google's down for a week or so, i'm pretty sure they'll loose tons of money & advertisers, but i don't think they'll go bankrupt ... not even in 10 years.

    That is a bit of an unanswerable question really, no one can predict such an event because if someone could, everyone would be selling their Google shares.

    Never ever think about 1000 years. That is a too long period. Technological taking place at this breathtaking pace, anything is possible. But google will be ready for any eventuality given the kind of human resources it has in its fold :)

    the thing is the founders are hard workers and always come up with even better advancement which has kept them so far ahead of the game that it would take them longgg time to go bankrupt

    I think a lawsuit would be the only thing that could ever bring Google down.
    But thats like a 1 in 12954830484930 chance.

    Maybe aliens won't invade, but humans and aliens will co-exist like in Futurama.
