    Not an employee but overall I am quite bullish on Airbnb as ironically they will be the definition of a what a post-covid travel company will become. Couple points in their favour:…

    I trust that I will sanitize it properly vs. a minimum wage housekeeper who prob needs to clean 50 rooms a day. Thats my plan is all airbnb and when I get there will do all the cle…

    Yeah no thanks on staying at hotels where you have hundreds of people going through it and underpaid maids who "clean" tons of rooms a day. Sure that is really safe in this environ…

    Do you trust that the housekeeper who gets paid $15/hour and prob cleans 50 rooms a shift is really going to clean your place throughly? Also the amount of traffic in the hotel, th…

    I actually think they will have a MORE inventory. The economic devastation of Covid will have people want to drive additional revenue stream and thus securitize their unused space.…

    Yes they will. Simple option which is Airbnb contracts with a local professional cleaner and every rental in that area provide an extra cleaning service if you want to pay for it.

    Same here. What if Airbnb has option where you pay extra for a deep clean before you check-in from approved vendors?

    I agree 100% as well. A couple things: 1. They already own the short-term rental market. Why not expand to the long-term rental market and undercut the broker fee that currently oc…

    Same here as one of the biggest pain in the ass after booking a hotel and airflight is what do you do at your destination? This helps a bunch.

    I sent this to someone at the Bill & Melinda foundation. If they contact you let us all know.

    This is pretty absurd as your hypothesis makes no sense. The drive for revenue is going to override any government demand for oversight. Any government stupid enough to put up this…

    Maybe the contrarian view but quite bullish on AirBnb (obviously not short term). This situation sucks but there is a glimmer of light which assuming the world finds a vaccine and …

    Just putting my 2 cents here as a user. I love AirBnB and never have had an issue at all so far. Once this gets over and yes it will I will continue to use it.

    I agree. We are going to go through the depths of hell but once we get past it and yes we will get past it that it will see us having resolved this.

    I don't need it but I did buy the iPhone X as basically this is the one device that I use all the time everyday.

    I am a huge Apple Pay user and had always assumed it was all stored in the cloud. Had no idea about this and makes it even more cool that they don't keep any PI info.

    Curious if you had to estimate how many days are you not in based in your home location a year?

    I am 100% in agreement. Love the iPhone X but would be perfect for a lower size. Seems I will just purchase the new X at this point (going to give my old X to a relative).

    Have you tried the Macbook? It is pretty amazing for me who came from the Air. Yeah I get the port issue but I have found out that I rarely use it now beside charging.

    Agree as well. I love the Apple Watch. The LTE really changed the game for me personally.

    Somewhat similar...I was at a FANG and not as high salary as you about $250K/year but had about $2.5M in net savings (mix of 401k, retirement and cash). Just wasn't happy being in …
