I think your analysis is flawed. There is no material difference between buying Chrysler or having a money bonfire.
JCAuto,
I disagree there is no difference between a bonfire and buying chrystler. That’s why they call the money Chrysler (or any company) spends, but doesnt make, a burn-rate.

Mr. Debacle,
I hate to tell you this, but you’re severely overpaying for your golf balls.
If I had $7.4bn to spend on golfballs, I would severely overpay for them. This is a personal guarantee I make to you To The Hilt, and lest you not be confused by imitators and charlatans, know that I am for real on this one. I give you my solemn bond as an anonymous man.
Btw, I look forward to the day your rival shows up in the comments. “To The Limit”. His theme song would make him the goto “To The” commenter and I think would really expose you for the theme song lacking commenter you are.
If you want to leave 180 million pro v1s on the table, you’re welcome to do so.
As far as to To The Limit is concerned, I’ll go with what my man The Dude said:
“Come on, man. I had a rough night and I hate the f*ckin’ Eagles, man!”
Also, “To The Hilt” is a song by Golden Earring. I’ve never heard it and had to use Google to find out about it, but at least I have a theme song. It probably sucks, though.
you guys are forgetting the fundamental rule of PE… It’s not about buying things that make money, it’s about buying big flashy things and telling people you’re making money…
I think the fundamental rule of PE that Cerberus is banking on is the fact that they ony have to put in 15% cash and find suckers in the debt market to clamor over one another to write big tickets for the bonds and bank loans.

As I commented elsewhere, given their enthusiasm for owning Chrysler, if you could bash together a convincing pitch for an taking Mr Debacle’s proposed money bonfire public via IPO as an exit, Cerberus would be all ears.
