Now that Jeff Bezos presides over one of the most valuable companies in the world and has amassed a personal fortune of around $150 billion, folks are turning to him for advice on how he became successful. And while there's no doubt he's a very smart guy, he didn't make Amazon into the company it is today singlehandedly. He surrounded himself with highly intelligent people. Which begs the question - how does Jeff Bezos decide someone is smart?
After weeks of speculation, a false start, another false start, hushed whispers across the entire retail industry and endless "insider tips" - we finally have another rumoured launch date for Amazon Australia: and that date is December 5!
Amazon Australia's launch may have been exaggerated, but Jeff Bezos' empire is getting closer to opening every day. Now, a new report shows that Amazon has purchased a large chunk of land in Sydney's south-west with plans to turn the site into a "network operations and data centre".
There's no denying that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is successful. Bezos recently dethroned Bill Gates as the world's richest man and has made countless decisions throughout his career that has forever impacted, amongst other things, how we all shop.
