Holy moly. Guy makes 1.4 billion in 4 years by selling a drink. And he only owns half the company. I mean, that Bill Gates got rich isn't much of a surprise to me, when everyone's using a computer. I mean, what Gates did was revolutionary, selling a drink isn't.

Just figured people would be interested in this as they're doing such good stuff for our sport.
 
he not only makes a drink. he has one of the best marketing schemes in the world.... i take that back. he has the best marketing scheme in the world. everything involving an action sport has a redbull logo somewhere.

and think of every convience store. they have like one row dedicated to monster/rockstar/etc. then they have an entire fridge dedicated to redbull.

 
It costs them more than they generate I think. I don't think they have too much income except for the cans themselves.
 
Think about all they do, events, sponsorships (and co. sponsorships), they made art of flight, and how many teams they own
 
he didn't. His net worth is just based on the value of the company. Cash in his pocket wouldn't be anywhere close to that number.
Either way, red bull is the best thing to happen to action sports. They support everything.
 
all the teams they have are directly money graves and all their events and sponsorships too. especially the formula one. but indirectly it seems to work.

they have a unheard equity ratio. you could literally make billions on a leverage buyout.

they dont produce the drinks themselves. they are literally only a distribution and administration company.

actually, it makes me crazy how you do that.
 
My small Methodists university even had redbull girls running around in the library during finals. Shit is everywhere.
