  • I never thought WeWork would succeed. Reasons:

    • the library was free to work at
    • they leased the property and then subleased it after rebuilding the inside
    • they offered free drinks, snacks, some places had gyms and showers too.
    • expanded very quickly and in LA had locations within a block of another.

    They are still around. It’s still around the same price to rent a desk for the day. But Regus, the actual property owner has their own desk rental service too.













  • Yeah, it’s like saying South Detroit. Never seen it written this way, only SoCal. This fire is in Orange county and I used to live in one of the valleys there. One time during a large fire that was ~8 miles away we had a firefighter come to our place and tell us to prepare to evacuate. Because that fire so far away could make up that distance within an hour with favorable winds and the dry conditions.
