Your wrong Brendan, it's not that much net profit... You could just go to their financials it's public. This weird idea companies make huge profits is wild. It's all public. Just go to their investor relations page

@notsoomni9798 no, you build it hoping you will make a profit but you don't always make a profit. You act like there aren't thousands of dead businesses that failed. It's so weird, you act like businesses don't make mistakes and never have issues. The stock is right there, if you really think it's such a broken business and so profitable, buy the stock. You can go to the investor relations page anytime and pull the financials and actually go look and put your money up. I find it very weird when the income statement is literally one page, and you will guess a company makes tons of money rather than just go look at the page. Most companies make anywhere from a 2 to a 10% profit margin. The problem isn't the profits, the problem is that because you guys want such cheap Services someone has to get exploited to make the profits. If we priced Goods at their actual cost without exploitation then none of you could afford anything. Cruises should cost 2x the price.. Most things should. But then, we'd have less prosperity. So, we exploit others around the world so western civilization can have a higher standard of living.

@poundtrader1414 then why didn't you own the stock since it's so profitable? You'd be down 70%, but since you know so freaking much, why didn't you buy? You're such a business expert here... Tell me?

@brentshuffler1234 lol, they NEVER look at financial statements. That's hard facts. Then, they couldn't make up their narrative about how all businesses make so much money and it's so unfair for the little guy. It's funny, if a business is so profitable as people say, why don't they buy the stock? How many people will cry about how much money a company makes, OK, buy the stock if you think it's such an easy business. Like oil. If oil makes so much money, buy the stock... Lol, I wouldn't touch it, I know how trash the business is, but if the normal public wants to burn their money that way, be my guest. But if a person doesn't own the stock and they're talking about how broken a business model is they don't know what they're talkin about. I know how broken banking, health insurance, etc. Are. I'll put my money on it. Being down 70% on your cruise line Investments isn't Fun. But hey, I'll buy in now for some tourist profits. Stock too cheap to ignore. Easy multi bagger.

@RussellD11 I'm pretty sure they said that that 1 million was just for food, I've looked at these financials before and I know that we spend a lot on these cruise ships. Put your money on the line and buy the stock, and you learn the business quickly.

@watchdealer11 thank you. Ya, people just assume running a business = 50% profits and you're a billionaire. No... Lots of times it's slumming it. Casinos regularly screw up and lose money. People at a bare minimum should be able to Google a company and see the financials it's right there on the Google page. You don't even have to go anywhere you can see the profit margin right away. I was talking to a person who said that Walmart didn't have to worry about theft who cares, they're a big corporation with huge profits. It's a 1% profit margin. You aren't going to make money if you have theft.

@uweinhamburg dude, the net profit assumes all of these things you mentioned. We normalize it. Do you think finance people are that stupid? That you just discovered some magic we didn't know about? Yo, please, call us scum bags or whatever you normally do. Don't insult our intelligence.

@morpheus5934 "their" money? Again, this shows a complete lack of understanding of how business works. Businesses are run for the shareholders. The CEO is normally a person who works for 4 years, before shareholders get pissed off and fire them and get the next person because we're impatient people that we always want to see growing profits.. To run some type of offshore scam that you're talkin about makes no sense, because the CEO changes way too often to keep such a scam consistent, and it benefits the CEO, who won't be there. The shareholders can't access the hidden money, since it's HIDDEN and can't be paid out or increase company value. You just don't have a large enough grasp of the financial system to even understand what fraud we would even do.

@mcrypto874 if you're so knowledgeable about the business trade the stock. Otherwise, you know a tiny tiny part of their business. You have no idea about the actual financials. If you haven't read their annual financials, you don't know the expenses. They're not long reports. It's how I spend my weekends. You're welcome to sell your life away and join me. It's fun.

 @stephaniebernal7723 trade the stock since you're so knowledgeable about the financials and the business.
