Amazon can do anything they want, but IS It PROFITABLE???? UPS can open grocery stores if they want, but will it make money??? Amazon is is giant ponzi scheme.

They lost a billion last year on there prime streaming movie service.
And Vegas casinos lose money on the buffets.
The streaming is an enticement to get them hooked on a Prime membership.
They retain 95% of Prime signups.
The average Prime member spends $1,200 on the site annually, compared to $700 for nonmembers.
This keeps consumers "in house"... Last year more than twice as many shoppers went directly to Amazon then to Google for product searches.

Amazon's annual revenue skyrocketed from $6.9 billion in 2004 to $89 billion in 2014, and $107 billion for 2015, $129 billion 2016 (projected).
Compare that with UPS at $58 Billion. Yes Virginia, they are now larger than us x2!

They have now surpassed Wal-Mart as the most valuable retailer (market valuation) in the world. Amazon showed profits in 3 of the last 4 quarters and their sales growth is unbelievable.

I always look 10 years younger than I am.
Has anyone here seen those Amazon lockers out on the streets? There is at least one in my area.

Maybe because he's a quitter when life gets hard. Smart move on management's part.
