    Amazon Is Poised to Emerge From the Pandemic Stronger Than Ever
    Jeff Bezon may be an asshole in real life (wife cheater, etc.) but the guy will go down in history as one of the greatest businessmen ever.

    I'm not sure if you can call him self made as he did borrow 300k from his parents to start a little online book selling website called Amazon some almost 30 years ago, but he is a business genius.

      Not even, I think Bezos stated up Amazon in 1993.
      You know when you are getting old when you remember that from 1993.

                Yeah, me too.
                They put a stop to it but only after the public outcry became too great.

                      Remember Amazon lost money its first 17 qtrs since going public.

                      It bled $3billion before earning $0.01 per share 4rg qtr 2001.

                      Not many guys get to be CEO for 5 years losing $3billion.

                      Guy got every break...

                              Doesn't affect me one way or another, but if you ask me if you cheat on your wife you're an asshole is all I'm saying.
                              If anybody else thinks it's OK, so be it.

                                  I refuse to buy from Amazon. I'd rather wait and get something from Ebay.

                                      I order everything from Amazon now.. They take a picture of the box they delivered on my porch the minute it's delivered and they emailed it to me.. Amazon is stepping up their game!!!

                                      Amazon is delivering everything right now and safely.. You can buy all dry foods on Amazon that are out in stores, you can buy everything from stores that are shut down.. Free shipping with Prime..

                                      Yes Amazon is cornering the market but they earned it and deserve it. I can't hate on Amazon right now. Job hirings as well are up..

                                          The only thing that can stop them is the gov't.

                                          Once they are selling from every industry, that will be it. You can't be a part of the drug manufacuring chain and also sell those drugs out of pharmacies.

                                          Amazon will run into those conflicts, but otherwise they already rule the world.

                                          Well not really. There is a bigger, faster version of Amazon that will deliver to people in a matter of minutes.

                                          It's call Taobao.

                                          It's the "Chinese Amazon" but you can't order Kung Flu from them.

                                          The Chinese just go outside for that...

                                            Amazon, Google, and Apple.
                                            Microsoft will be dead in 10 years, they're on the decline now.

                                              Corona is best thing that ever happen to Amazon.

                                              Buy stock now in Amazon is probably a solid investment if you hold on to it.

                                                Jeff Bezos and Vince McMahon are a rare few that won't let the virus stop their business. Dana White tried to do the same but some fighters bailed out of their fights.

                                                  Amazon will try and take over the world. Just like Microsoft tried.

                                                  Anti-trust law suits took care of that.
