Reply to comment by Neo2199 in Bob Iger Tells Disney Town Hall Hiring Freeze Still In Effect, No New Acquisitions Planned & Not Merging With Apple by Neo2199

Yes I read his book too quite a good read. Technically Iger was friends with Jobs wife and that relationship extended to Jobs eventually. I think Jobs would have but I didn’t say Jobs, I said Apple.

I stand by that I don’t think Apple would want to run a theme park today.

Apple running the parks would actually be quite interesting. Something like magic bands being fully replaced with Apple Watches. Or maybe apple improving computer systems for rides

Then they could give me a portion of the company. That would be the best day in history.

You can purchase a portion of the company on the stock market.

I meant acquiring all Pixar and then some. I would definitely love to run a theme park. But the stock market is a great place to start.

I mean they could create a larger corporate umbrella while keeping Apple and Disney separate business units with their own management.
