I'd doubt Samsung will be struggling to stay afloat. They're so diversified they could pick one of their departments to throw money at and just run at a loss in perpetuity, if they felt like it. Apple makes phones, computers, and phone and computers accessories.

Samsung makes phones and computers. And appliances. And chips. And container ships.

And insurance, and healthcare, and construction, etc. They are involved in so many different industries it's almost hard to believe.

When one of the owner family's board members fell sick a few years ago they were monitored at a Samsung hospital in Korea if i'm not mistaken

Yea, was just talking about their phone lines, not them as a company.
