    Borrowed $250k ($550k in today’s money) from his family to start Amazon, has so much money now that money has ceased to have meaning. This asshole has never lived a normal life and yet he thinks he knows what kind of problems people are facing today.

      That’s not a bad thing. Families should do it more often: pool their money and start a business. The return rates are higher.
