Correction: it's not $1,144,000,000. It's less.
It's "only" $894,000,000.
I misunderstood an article with that second figure as being Toyota's
total investment prior to another investment of $250,000,000, when
instead it was Toyota stating what their total investment would be AFTER
that $250M.
Of course, that doesn't change the fact (yeah, Loser: fact complete with
receipts, but you can Google them if you don't believe me) that Joby has
currently (as of March 31 of this year) got $812,524,000 in cash and
short-term investments...
...or that $122,290,000 of that is cash in the bank.
