Facebook makes hundreds of millions annually. They could have been very profitable years ago (but chose instead to try for an even bigger hit). I don't know why people on this site keep talking about Facebook like it's a failed business.

Because moneycomingin > moneygoingout or you die.

It doesn't matter how big either of those numbers are, as long as the equations stand. Most argue that the equation in facebook's case fails.
