- Mathias Döpfner, the CEO of Business Insider's parent company, Axel Springer, recently sat down with Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos to talk about the early days of creating Amazon, what he's learned since then, how he funds his rocket company, Blue Origin, and what it's like when the president of the United States is your biggest critic.
The sit-down interview happened in Berlin, where Bezos received the Axel Springer Award 2018.

The reason Jeff Bezos has 200 billion dollars is because he doesn’t have to pay for shampoo every month
Just like Daddy Warbux
In which country does a shampoo cost billions of dollars ?

This is financial advice and I never give financial advice: DONT LEAVE DURING THE BEAR. If you don’t want to invest…learn. If you don’t want to learn…build. If you don’t want to build observe. DO SOMETHING…other than leave. There is so much opportunity here. Take advantage!
Just because there are opportunities in the market doesn’t mean you should go in blindly. To understand the potential factors that contribute to your financial growth, I'll advise you to seek the help of a professional.
Very true, I started investing before the pandemic and that same year I pulled a profit of about $750k with no prior investing experience, basically all I was doing was seeking guidance from *ROCHELLE DUNGCA-SCHREIBER* who's a guru in the game, you can be passively involved with the aid of a professional.
It took me 3 years to stop trying to predict what's about to happen in the market based on charts studying because you never know. Please, i need the help of your Investment advisor.
God bless you for sharing!
I work at Amazon Berlin we get payed close to the minimum wage, and i would say 70% of the employees are temporary workers hired by an external company (including myself). I once didn't get paid for 2 months and Amazon and my employee were throwing the ball at eachother, i never got paid my total salary. Are these called good working conditions? Give me a break
It’s wrong but who chose to work there?

Good that he didn’t call his company -“tree’s”
Lol😂😂😂😂👏👌👌👌
Despite all the bullshit the media says about the amazon forest, that is being burned down and shit, the Amazon still is, by far, the largest forest in the world. And will stay that way for many years to come, simply because there is not enough population to destroy that area.
Now this forest is destroyed because of Amazon trash company

I remember when amazon just sold books
i remember when amazon referenced the most beautiful rainforest on earth
*_Amazon was created with tax payers dollars because Jeff Bezos on board of directors at the CIA voted for himself to get the money then copied an paced EBAY and did it again recently to give himself 600 million to create a cloud service that already exist and is free.

" Having supportive people in your life make you end up being able to take risks" This is such a true statement, in most cases, there are people around you who will criticize what you do and in fact to give you more negative information on how you could fail if you are to proceed with your ideas, but if you have your immediate family or friends supporting you or giving you courage with positive information it gives such energy to initiate action and drive forward with a positive mind. In my case my mom, my wife, and two daughters, wife is full time with me in the business working on establishing our little business in London " we are selling our products on Amazon too" and my two daughters provide us so much knowledge and information with their support to achieve our targets. What I am trying to say is that if the family remains the same in love and unity even after achieving their goals and being victorious it is the greatest ever goal you could achieve in life.
💯 true
Amen
This guy should definitely start his own business

I get what you're saying, it's dreamers like him who change the world but forget that not everyone is as committed to the vision as he is especially when he's not sitting on billions of dollars like Musk, so I agree. On the other hand there are so many companies that require nonstop work from employees and they're not changing the world, they're doing jobs that robots could do. So...these people live in US, they have choices to go get other jobs but they want to stick around for the success of the big vision...that comes at a price (sadly and always)...one problem of capitalism is unfairness of pay :-\ and yet fairness in the fact that everyone can go out and start their own business...it's an odd world.

Perhaps if he practiced more of what he preaches, it sounds warm and fuzzy though does not it.

Glad to hear that Jeff Bezos had a great support network growing up.
To have a functional family unit is so important in healthy child development.I do wish him the best spiritually and otherwise.
I have one thought after hearing from people who have worked for the Amazon company.
If Jeff Bezos really practices the idea of listening to criticism why does he not pay his employees a wage that covers the rent,and living expenses?
Because he cares about the profits, nothing else. He doesn't even see his employees as human beings.

@Frauldo Explains they want bezos to pay warehouse workers salary of a graduate and want that they should work 8 hours a day and get stock option with health care and they even want their product to be shipped in a day.And bezos is unable to give his workers such basic needs so the above thing.
JB complimenting the production (and crew) right away was a class act. As somebody in that business, it’s rare to hear….even off the air. Even if it was calculated, it shows character.
True
*It shows that he plays his character well
"You can explain things to people but you can't understand things to people" oh man.. golden ✨
Jeff Bezos deserves a Nobel Prize. I don't know which category. Maybe they can create one for him. I'm 65 years old and can well remember the old "6-8 weeks delivery"." I also remember lousy customer service. Well, yes. That's still around. but Amazon? If a refund is in order, even though the customer service rep tells you 3-5 days, I've had it where the refund appears in my checking account 5 hours later.
I've been an Amazon customer for 11 years -- both Prime and non-Prime. I'm also a senior citizen. Take my word for it, senior citizens LOVE Amazon!

And Amazon loves you. Oh how they do

Thank you business insider for the line of questions and relaxed interview. This video changed my idea about Amazon, İ get the impression he's a well raised good willing analytical century-long-term planning entrepreneur.

Interesting, I was born in 64 also to a 17 yr old momma, I had my parents grandparents and great grandparents all taking care of me …. lots of love for a good start!
He is a very cool person. Listening to him, you want to open your own business and achieve success.
Really enjoyed listening to him! Such a great speaker.
Oof. We f-ed. This guy has literally no clue what he's saying or doing, as pointed out with much humor by Some More News; and others. His messages about
Pollution and this and that and any of that are contradictory and/or infantile. He's getting issues pointed out to him but he cares not.
It is okay to fail. You have to put ego aside and being willing to take risks. Without taking calculated risks it is hard to achieve anything. Well done, Jeff. 🙌
Jeff Bezos dropped a major gem less than 3 minutes. Now it all makes sense to why his brand is highly successful.
Tough questions but Jeff's answers were intelligent & considerate.
It was an excellent interview with beautiful background.
What a beautiful exhibition as to the fact that our world is in fairly honorable hands. Makes me feel nice. And inspires me too !

The interviewer cutting Bezos off throughout the interview was quite irritating.
That’s because successful people intimidate others and in the beginning Jeff Bezos mention how he never focuses on the competition just all his energy to the customers. Clearly stating he never let anyone get in his way no matter what even if he haves to act fake around them to hide his true feelings, which gets to me because I can relate. been pushed around but It only made me become wiser and humble towards others been called cocky and biased to those have it less than me; those doing better ahead of my time calls me naive,Funny Which haven’t gotten where I want to be but I’m sure what I want to do without a care for money or validation ; those who are my at early 20’s say my type are boring and a loser however I like to do many things going on for myself whether they don’t know that but not like it matters just a waste of time and energy. Just because I like things most probably find sophisticated lifestyle doesn’t define your personality fully I’m also goofy, weird, energetic, positive, sensitive, I might workout but I still feel less about my looks but healthy and smile because I used to be a grudge but people could make a change self made.

He have created a company that serves millions of consumers that's why he became a billionaire. It doesn't matter if Amazon doesn't have good working conditions or overpriced products.

I like how bezos answers confrontational questions by being empathetic and understanding, but shifts the reasoning for the confrontation and doesn't answer the question directly. His well prepared 👏
Jeff Bezos should start his own podcast. I want to hear him talk.
Imagine spending $10,000 worth of Amazon stock when it first came out, what it would be worth! Bezos only owns 11% of Amazon stock.
That's insane cause I may put $1000 to buy a stock I think might go up but never think that $1000 would bring me back 2 Mil! That's crazy and what's even crazier is Amazon was out for awhile before it skyrocketed to what it is now. The first 10 years of Amazon Bezos probably thought it was gonna be a bust.

Just because you have a big idea doesn't mean you're gonna make big business. It's *alot* more.
That is so true, you can explain things to people, but you can't understand things to people. Also, in my view innovation is the ability to both reinvent and create new.

Everything starts with the family. A good family environment is what gave us Jeff Bezos. He had all the strength he needed, moral, monetary, and otherwise to take the risk because he knew that if he failed he would not be alone. The nuclear family is central. Without it we will crumble.
His interviews are priceless. Unlike other CEOs, he is a great speaker. There is a lot needed to be done in the field of media. To make it transparent and use for good. i am happy Bezos owns a media house and it would be interesting to find what he will innovate in the media field

@@jonk1370 he should've planned his questions better and revise as he goes. Other interviewers do better.
No dude, he's doing a good job. Bezos answers so quick and excitedly, before he finishes asking, that it looks like the interviewer is interrupting.....
He looks overwhelmed by his own prophecy. He was running on barely any profit for years but knew things would go big one day. You can see how many sacrifices he had to take to be where he is now. You work hard for decades knowing things go big, yet as a human you keep having doubts, and then there you go, being the richest man of this planet but you kinda wait to wake up, but you start to realize that's it. That's the feeling he has. When initial determined surreality turns into reality.

He's sitting on billions on dollars. If he wanted to he could just sell his shares and even spending 1 million dollars per day, he would probably not finish spending it in his life time.

llaevigrof Nice baseless assumption.
Sorry Vince (on the Lam?) it is the the truth -- for those who 'rule/control' the Jewish 'collective'. Bezos would like to shut down every other biz and he is getting there, just like Rockefeller and his 'Competition is a sin. It takes little research to know the truth... people are so indoctrinated and mind controlled into what is right in front of their eyes.
llaevigrof And do you know how he's doing that? By providing lower prices to consumers. I have absolutely no problem with that. He's a very good businessman and has a great business model. It's not his fault that nobody else can compete. Keep your religious nonsense out of this please.
After listening a couple of interviews (old and new) from this guy I'm slowly becoming a fan of his work. Hope the best for Amazon a Space X, and Tesla and probably Google and Wikipedia I guess.... Jajjaa 😂
