❓Did you know that…

…back in 1998, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin offered to sell their fledgling search engine to Yahoo for $1 million so they could return to their studies at Stanford? Yahoo turned them down, preferring to focus on their own platform. Just a few years later, in 2002, Yahoo had another opportunity to acquire Google for $5 billion but walked away from the deal. Today, Google is worth hundreds of billions, making these missed opportunities some of the most costly decisions in tech history!
