Red Bull Study: It does not give you wings (II)

I love Red Bull, and Red Bull and vodka. But mostly I love what they do with their money rather than just taking in profits. They sponsor so much awesome stuff and I think that’s what makes them great.

“But mostly I love what they do with their money rather than just taking in profits.”

Are we not into silly old capitalism or are we into …?

Do you realize how much cool stuff they do? No one else comes close to the top level athletes they sponsor in virtually any action sport. They have fleets of aircraft including WWII birds. Race cars, motorcycles, you name it.

Name another company that does what they do with the money they take in.

…going off half cocked?

Come on, his comment was about neat stuff like the Red Bull Air Races. Nobody said there was anything wrong with capitalism. I’m honestly not sure what point you’re trying to make here, but it seems like a red herring.

This is just some of the cool stuff Red Bull has. http://www.wired.com/2011/01/peek-inside-red-bulls-toybox/

Flying a restored DC6 to their F1 races around the globe? That’s just cool man.

Then as a huge Motocross fan I love what they do for the sport. They sponsor most of the elite racers from the U.S. And Europe.

The Air Races, Straight Rhythm, Flugtag, etc. Just a cool company that pumps tons of money into their riders and the sports they back. IMO the world would be less cool if Red Bull wasn’t around.

Agreed. Their drinks taste good, but as long as you’re not a retard and don’t believe it gives you wings or rely on them for nutrition or performance, you will be fine.

I was way off base with my comment.

Knowing nothing about RB other than it’s ghastly taste, and zero about it’s business practice, I thought this comment: “But mostly I love what they do with their money rather than just taking in profits.” - gave me the vibe of Ben & Jerry’s socialist business ethic.

I was wrong.

It happens. No worries.
