Simply that $1.9 billion could have bought them a new building instead of purchasing an already in use building. I understand there are benefits to purchasing the building they are currently residing in, as in not having to move or wait for a new building to be constructed, among other things. But thanks for sounding like a dick when I just wanted to know if anyone else had some "insight" on why they made the decision they did.
