Are you telling me that Jeffrey Bezos is INTENTIONALLY attracting billions of customers with cheap stuff and then starts closing down his ecosystem? Why would he do that?!

If you own (or rather inherit) 20 million and you invest them with an interest rate of 5% you earn 1 million a year without doing any work. You can buy every luxury you need with an income like that. So everything above 20 million is not wealth or security anymore, it's power. And some people are attracted by it.
