    The thing is Twitter costs, even at its height, under a billion a year to run.

    He could pull all advertising and run it to the end of his life as a hobby.

    But he can’t have that, because the line must go up and the workers must cower in fear whenever their boss stalks the building.

      That and one of the thing with rich people is that they hate losing money whatever happens.

      So technically Melon could run Twitter at a loss for years but at one point, he will simply abandon it.
