Saw someone posted this on Reddit and figured it had to be a poster of the OT.

Mike Bloomberg bought the presidency for Joe Biden. He also bought 21 democratic seats and told the world about it on stage.

I bought them. - Mini Mike.

Does Huawei count?

quote:

Huawei claims it is an employee-owned company, but it remains a point of dispute.

Ren Zhengfei retains approximately 1 percent of the shares of Huawei's holding company, Huawei Investment & Holding, with the remainder of the shares held by a trade union committee (not a trade union per se, and the internal governance procedures of this committee, its members, its leaders or how they are selected all remain undisclosed to the public) that is claimed to be representative of Huawei's employee shareholders.


About half of Huawei staff participate in this scheme (foreign employees are not eligible), and hold what the company calls "virtual restricted shares". These shares are non-tradable and are allocated to reward performance. When employees leave Huawei, their shares revert to the company, which compensates them for their holding. Although employee shareholders receive dividends, their shares do not entitle them to any direct influence in management decisions.

Academics Christopher Balding of Fulbright University and Donald C. Clarke of George Washington University have described Huawei's virtual stock program as "purely a profit-sharing incentive scheme" that "has nothing to do with financing or control".

They found that, after a few stages of historical morphing, employees do not own a part of Huawei through their shares. Instead, the "virtual stock is a contract right, not a property right; it gives the holder no voting power in either Huawei Tech or Huawei Holding, cannot be transferred, and is cancelled when the employee leaves the firm, subject to a redemption payment from Huawei Holding TUC at a low fixed price.

There’s a few VC/PE firms that are solely owned with massive values.

Mars, chick fil a, ....
Private companies owned by the families.
Hard to do one with just a single owner. It would have to be a relatively new company. And rare that those don't have partnerships.
PayPal had 2.
Apple had 2.
Etc.
