      +KaRi ThePrimeSpot I've been listening to that exact book on the audible app off and on for about a month now and am halfway through.
      Then I was like, well why not hear it from the horse's mouth?
      I am so impressed!
      And the interviewer has both my annoyance and respect, because he pushed way too hard with the questions, but they are questions I've been dying to know Jeff's answer to them.

    The interviewer was throwing shade the whole time about the stock price because he had vested interest from being an investor but the issue is that he has a scared scarcity mindset because he only sees the current price and thinks Jeff is failing when in reality he's investing his money into taking actions on the long term which includes money in to find the assets that will launche the companies stock price above anything its seen. And now he is the richest man in the world.

    Investment is a trade off between risk and profit. Amazon isn't risky because they spend all their money on R&D. (This can be argued). But really why you invest in Amazon is because you want relatively low risk long term gains. The sum of profit in the short term is not equal to profit in the long term.

    My son went from working hard on a hay farm to being a package driver for Amazon for one dollar more an hour. He loved it at first but that love quickly wore off. As he kept making his delivery time goals each week, they kept pushing him more and more without any bonuses. It was never good enough. He was working 12 hour shifts. He was exhausted, going up flights up stairs carrying packages daily.
    The better he was, they more they worked him until he completely gave out. Once he tripped on a step and he was terrified to tell management so he wouldn't get yelled at n get a mark against him or get fired. I cleaned his elbow and super glued his elbow skin together and put butterfly stitches on it send sent him back to work.
    A year later, after 2 years of no raises, tighter goals to meet, no recognition for safety, and reaching his goals, he gave up n quit.

Once we become how valuable we are including time, the pursuit should be to fulfill with great passion and great ethics what we are blessed and good at we do: carpentry, electricity, barber, manicurist etc!! If we can work hard for other to earn income almost now days not enough…I am pretty sure we can work for out own selves. Discipline. Enjoy the journey. It’s your story make it beautiful 🦋❤️
