amazon grows its revenue → amazon stock value increases → amazon share holder richer
Many companies also pay dividends directly to the share holder but iirc Amazon has preferred to reinvest in growth
Amazon has been really successful in several domains and he's owned a lot of it from the start
Although if you did earn $5k per day and managed to invest at a yearly return of 3% above interest, you'd have about $41 trillion
At 1% above interest you'd just have $3.6 billion so invest wisely
(edit, corrected the numbers)
You sound very unhappy with being alone. If you feel stuck and like you've tried everything you can think of, it might be a good time to ask for help from a therapist or similar. They might have ideas or tools you haven't thought of yet
People in relationships can be miserable and feel extremely alone too, if the relationship isn't working well. It's not a one-stop-shop to happiness sadly
I hope you figure it out and start feeling better
If you're frictionless too, physicists will love you
Bombing campaigns are surprisingly ineffective at winning wars. Iran could possibly kill some people but it would be very far from winning that way. Not in an hour, not in a decade
Yeah, the 20th least polluting country is near 1000x worse than the estimated CO2 footprint in the article
You're right... The "more than 20 countries" thing, is about 1000x away from the real number too, so I guess they dropped a "kilo" somewhere and somehow didn't react to getting an obviously absurd result
This is hugely incorrect
... equivalent to 281,315 metric tons of CO2. This is roughly the same quantity of emissions that 75 coal-fired power plants produce in a year, and it exceeds the annual emissions of 20 individual countries and territories.
A single medium sized (1MW) coal power plant outputs about 6.3 million metric tons CO2 per year, so the comparison is three magnitudes off
I wouldn't trust any other numbers from that site without verification
