Downtown Josh Brown’s tumblr site is dedicated to “Things Apple is Worth More Than.”
The ever-growing list includes such gems as:
• The entire National Football League – times ten
• All the gold at the New York Federal Reserve Bank
• The entire economy of Singapore
• All of the illegal drugs in the world
• The Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter, Stephen King and Twilight franchises combined
There’s a lot more where that cam from here.
[Thanks to MacDailyNews readers too numerous to mention individually for the heads up.]
Coolest company in human history.
Only $5B shy of Microsoft + Google.

Should surpass them by New Years, Valentines day at the latest.
Microsoft + IBM is the next big milestone I’m looking forward to, a thorn leftover from the 80’s.
Start a new category… “Things Apple could buy with just its CASH.”
Apparently, Apple could buy ALL the NFL teams (and have plenty of cash left over for free pizza and beer).
Apple is worth a stack of Microsofts tall enough to reach from here to the moon.
Microsoft
Your potential. Ours to piss on.
Soon …this Mother Earth will be Planet Apple !!!
What if we put all the money from Apple on a stack of $100 bills? If a bundle of 100 bills of $100 is half an inch tall ($ 10,000) It would have 44.2 miles high!
Now, What if we put all the inhabitants of the earth in a single stack, one over the other? I do not know how high the pile would be, but at least we would not reproduce, at least for a while…
Depends on the orientation of the humans in the stack…
The stack from the U.S. would be the tallest, regardless of country population, because the people are so fat.
When are the governments going to steal it? Or wall street for that matter.
I’m waiting for the inevitable idiotic articles that will confuse Apple’s worth with its size, and ask if Apple can still be “nimble”, now that it’s so “huge”.
