Jeff Bezos is proof that there is no cure for baldness that money can buy.
Lol 🤣
@Pamela Gangler not as sexy as you damn 😈😘
Perhaps, but It may buy him a sturdy Clingon ship to increase his shipping speeds.
Only. Cuz he didn’t want to ask elon musk what the secret to hair growth is lol
Wait until a cure is available on Amazon.
Should’ve bought all those stocks back then. Too bad I was 3 😂
Biden was killed https://youtu.be/TdRUNQMm17I omg.:
Sandbox or Stocks…Well, you f*cked up didn’t you? Lol
I wish I was only 3 back then then I would have a legitimate excuse for not
@6IX good maybe he’ll play dead for good
I wasn’t even born.
Been a while since I saw a vintage Henry Blodget. Who remembers him and Mary Meeker?
He played stupid till he was the richest white dude, he trumped the loses they always made money. They were not loses it was buying realistate and equipment and calling it losses works for taxes too
I didn’t even consider him as my competitor because i know he can’t beat me,20 yrs after CNN will do a documentary about me, Save this comment.
Why what do you do?
And in 2021 the FTC told Bezos this about Amazon’s success: “Please pay $62 million dollars for stealing drivers’ tips and using the money to subsidize their wages.”
Stealing $62 million from employees tips, that way anyone can get rich. What a disgrace.
Amazon now ships out over 1 Million Crystal Balls a year. Honesty and Modesty are the best policies.
Does Nancy Armour write a hate piece on Tom Brady every year? I know of two for sure. Every time he’s headed to the super bowl she’s writes about how him being white is a problem. Really interested in knowing exactly what CNN thinks about white ppl.
Damn, the only thing that changed was his hairline! Good genetics 🧬 my brother!
The lock down has made him TONS of money. His company needs to be broken up.
