Start-up Clark is worth more than a billion dollars
Ggood evening,
Do you know that? You read about a company that emerged from a seemingly simple thought and BECOMES a huge success. And thinks: It would be great if I also … The idea that Christopher Oster had six years ago would definitely not have occurred to many others. In 2015 he founded the insurance broker Clark with three partners. Shortly before, between two jobs, Oster had resolved to sift through his insurance policies and, in the process, war encountered the problem that. Clark tries to satisfy this need. Today the start-up from Frankfurt is worth more than a billion dollars. Daniel Schleidt wrote down how that can be.
That was expectable: The stricter corona rules apply from Thursday and many are dissatisfied. We haven’t heard that much from those who have not been vaccinated or recovered and who now present a negative PCR test. When and where was a rapid antigen test sufficient to gain access to public life. Criticism came from the economy on Tuesday. Eberhard Flammer, President of the Hessian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (HIHK), summed it up as follows: “The obligation to test at workplaces with customer contact is also useful, otherwise it burdens the companies affected by the corona pandemic a lot. THEY will be converted into test centers and the costs will be passed on to the companies. ”In addition to the costs for the tests, there are additional bureaucratic efforts. “We would have liked more priority for personal responsibility.” However, now short-term planning security is now. Whoever has not been vaccinated for whatever reason must now plan his or her life more intensely than before; One often has to wait 24 hours for the result of a PCR test.
Should you laugh or cry? If the black book of the Taxpayers Association appears, in which particularly serious cases of, to put it bluntly, waste of money are listed, both are obvious. In the current issue, presented on Tuesday in Wiesbaden, Frankfurt and Wiesbaden are represented, but also the little Idstein. There, the fun and leisure pool threatens to become a heavy burden for a city with a population of only 25,000. It could cost up to 60 million euros by 2041. “The city should have examined the contracts critically and should never have been allowed to enter into such far-reaching obligations,” judges the taxpayers’ association. He researched the background as follows: After the operator’s bankruptcy in 2018, the city bought the originally private water park for 5.4 million euros plus ancillary costs from the owner, a bank in Austria. Previously, the city had made far-reaching concessions to the operator and thus maneuvered itself into a “million dollar dilemma”, so that the purchase and operation of the bathroom in need of renovation seemed economical as the fulfillment of the major obligations. According to the taxpayers’ association, that was a mistake, and for this the city of Nun received an entry in the black book. After all, the headline is good: “Expensive fun in the fun pool – taxpayers go for a swim”.
