Re: $$$
@mpouraryan thank you :) but in my books risk must be always calculated risk :) not a gamble of choice...

Re: $$$
I would argue @batye that it has to make business sense--but the payoff is there if the risk is to be taken.    Do you agree?

Re: $$$
..the pay off on automation is profound--I was dealing with AT&T Today and the VOIP automated system blew me away on how smart it was and I was able to finalize the business.  What I suggesting, in effect, is that the fear has to be less and less.

What am I missing here?

Re: $$$
@afwriter it does sound like a lot, though for companies like Apple, it represents only 1% of its cash reserves. For those that are not quite as cash rich, it does require some careful review to be certain of ROI.

That is an awful lot of money, but it seems like they know what they are doing.  It will be interesting to see if Telstra becomes an example or a cautionary tale.
