    It’s all part of how society works.

    Networking is what has grown my career. People know I deliver and that’s why I make what I make.

    I’m not fan of bezos and still surprised by his success. It’s a model that somehow he got to work and as a business person I don’t like him.

      Back then, he used a considerable amount of money to run at a loss. Nowadays, he does steal a remarkable level of profits in the unpaid wages of the employees who keep winding up in the news for being forced to piss in bottles or drive to work in a hurricane.
