Will either of them last that long? Visible self-driving cars on that scale are probably a half-decade to a full decade away. Imagine burning through over a billion a year and as they grow more and more that long. They're public now so the expectations will be different. As they grow a billion a year will turn to 2 and 3 billion a year in losses.After that lyft ipo i wouldn't touch it.
Uber Eats intrigues me though.
At the end of the day, you're going to have to have a risk appetite for a company that's going to be losing big amounts of money for the next few years.
Honestly, I'm not sure either lyft or uber will be profitable until self-driving cars become a thing and they can cut the majority of their drivers out of the equation..
