Microsoft spent $26.2 billion to take over LinkedIn, and if you think the software giant is spending too much money, here’s something that could make you change your mind.
Redmond was ready to pay almost as much money on taking over Facebook a long time ago when the social network wasn’t really this popular, but according to recent reports, it was Mark Zuckerberg who refused the deal.
Former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer revealed in an interview with CNBC on Friday that his company was interested in buying Facebook when it was “itsy-bitsy” and the amount of money it would have paid reached $24 billion. Zuckerberg refused, though, and considering where Facebook is right now, he clearly made the right decision.

“Oh I think $24 billion when the company was itsy-bitsy and he said no. And I respect that,” Ballmer, who is now the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, revealed.

Write commentsI was searching for a loan to sort out my bills & debts, then I saw comments about Blank ATM Credit Cards that can be hacked to withdraw money from any ATM machines around you . I doubted this but decided to give it a try by contacting {skylinktechnes@yahoo.com} they responded with their guidelines on how the card works. I was assured that the card can withdraw $5,000 instant per day & was credited with $50,000 so i requested for one & paid the delivery fee to obtain the card, i was shock to see the UPS agent in my resident with a parcel{card} i signed and went back inside and confirmed the card work after the agent left. This is no doubt because I have the card & have made use of the card. These hackers are USA based hackers set out to help people with financial freedom!!
