He’s the CEO of ?one the greatest online shopping ?companies of all time. He now owns the Washington Posts. He wants to use drones to deliver packages. He attended the exclusive, infamous Bilderberg conference. Is Jeff Bezos having the best 2013 ever?
According to his Amazon, 2013 was their best holiday shopping season ever. The website made over 38 million sales on Cyber Monday alone. It’s program Amazon Prime, which can be obtained for $79 a year, reached 20 million members.In fact, Amazon Prime was so popular they had to turn applicants away just to ensure quality of existing members. Free shipping was one of the factors. In one week in December 2013, Amazon Prime gained one million plus members.
I just hope for Bezos’ sake that free shipping paid off. I hope everybody got their gifts on time in one setting. There’s been a lot of talk of people’s gifts not getting shipped properly. But the way his and Amazon’s year is going, I wouldn’t be surprised if Amazon got 100% delivery. Of course, the year of Bezos didn’t come without controversy. The drones delivery ended in disaster, but of course he’s going to keep at it. And what was Bezos doing at a Bilderberg conference; I heard a lot of suspect things about Bilberbergs. What else has this guru done this year?
