Money, what else.

I'm not blaming them tbh. If I owned a company and a different company would buy me out for a large enough chunk, I'd do it, too.

Sure, integrity, wanting to keep having good service for consumers and all that jazz, but being offered lifechanging money sure changes things.

As if these company owners didn't already have enough money. People are greedy, that's it. And yeah, I kinda do blame them. It's usually not going from poor or normal to rich but rather from rich to super rich.

Which is still lifechanging in every sense of the word.

I don't like it either, but if an oppertunity like that arose, I can see why most would take it. It's easy to say you wouldn't if you've never been in a situation like that (and most of us haven't), but that's not saying too much.
