Step down as CEO and be chairman.

Very smart guy. From online bookshop to one of the richest people in the world.

Everything driven by:

  • Focus on on the consumer (at almost all costs)
  • Ambition, no half measures
  • Cloud computing
  • Data and analytics
No scandal. Just someone cognisant about when the right moment is to disrupt your own business.

Edit: if there is a scandal, then ok - but I think he is just ahead of the market, again.

Zuckerberg is the robot that hasn't had the emotion and expression upgrade installed yet.

Surely you step down to *have* a scandal? Or in another definition...have a life.

Besides, Bezos has already gone through the more expensive divorce known to human history ...

Just carrying on his tradition of delegating so he can spend more time on the fun stuff like the rockets.

He’s focussing on climate change now..

Or as non elites like to call it, a return to the mediaeval system ruled by technocrats.

Exactly, having made a fortune via much use of fossil fuels and exploitation in many ways, he might now try to lecture us lesser mortals about how to live our lives.
Rank hypocrisy but it would appear our Politicians listen to such as he. Now why?

It doesn't surprise me at all. They ended up with a hell of a lot of spare computing capacity and turned it into a product which, rightly or wrongly, is extremely popular.
