You forgot to mention that they will let you use it for cheap until everyone got used to it and then crank up the price by 500%

Most people dont have heart attacks, so 2.5 times that is not really much.

What are you even talking about?

Yea. Really sad to see the price theyre paying for making the right decision once is 20% of their stock price…
