It is amazing how this guy started this empire that's now the highest valued on the entire planet earth, surpassing Bill Gate's Microsoft.
This could help set the record straight on Bill Gates, who might be overrated. All of the following is true as far as I've been able to uncover.
Jeff Bezos has the potential to be a smarter and better tech CEO than Bill Gates, Steve Jobs or either of the google founders. The innovations Bezos made to amazon don't only amount to business models, or cutting middle men out of the equation as with walmart. I think Bezos has made significant contributions to amazon's tech policies and even their software engineering process, which have helped make it the dominant power it is today.
Also for those who were early adopters of amazon's stock, they received massive percentage gains on their investment similar to what early adopters of bitcoin enjoy. If you look at amazon's stock price history, it has sustained massive percentage growth over the years which is very impressive.
Amazon's stock opened @ $18. Today, its worth almost $1,200 nearly 100 times its initial value!
From october to november (2017) it gained almost 20% in value!
