of those biographies of the billionaires who seemed to be in love with themselves and want everyone to know what their journey was, what their path was. It's not that style. It's a book, actually, by a journalist named Brad Stone who wanted to investigate how Amazon became the most powerful company in the world. And this book is already a little old, to a certain extent. They wrote it about 10 years ago. But it has many messages that apply to all kinds of fields. It reminds me a lot, when I was reading it, it reminded me a lot of... Al arte y la guerra, un libro así de que cuando fue escrito fue con un propósito, de en verdad enseñarle a otros países, a otros generales cómo funciona el arte de la guerra, pero ahora hoy en día lo utilizan ejecutivos y hasta gurús de emprendimiento y de superación personal para enseñarte sobre la vida.
Este libro es algo parecido porque estamos viendo cómo empezó una tienda, una página web muy mal hecha a su principio, to become the most visited website in the world and the company with the most income. In fact, Walmart has more income than Amazon, but Walmart has a very small profit margin. Obviously, Amazon is basically the most valuable company in the world. The book was based on 300 interviews that were made to people who were on Amazon from the beginning. conversations with Jeff Bezos himself. The book became very famous because the ex-wife of Jeff Bezos, Mackenzie Bezos, gave him a review of a single star on the page when she read the book because it shows a Jeff Bezos and an Amazon without mercy, both with their competition and with their employees.
It shows a very determined and at the same time has run over many people on the way. But as I mentioned, it also shows you how one of the most innovative companies in history started. So I hope you enjoy this summary of the Dream Shop. It starts with the story of Jeff Bezos as a person, of why he came up with this idea. Bezos, who today is worth 155 billion dollars and that is taking into account that the Amazon stock has dropped quite a bit this year, as have almost all technology stocks. He will probably be the first person in the world to be worth 500 billion and take care of a trillion. But well, Jeff Bezos had parents who got married young, but as often happens at that age, they divorced themselves and he never really met his biological father.
