They said that the company will be ‘free from profit making incentives and constraints’. The intention was to find ways to cut costs, then boost satisfaction for patients with an initial focus on technology solution base.

"The healthcare system is complex, and we enter into this challenge open-eyed about the degree of difficulty," said Bezos. "Hard as it might be, reducing healthcare's burden on the economy while improving outcomes for employees and their families would be worth the effort." Divorce Scandal

In January, 2019, he formally announced his divorce, an action that prompted The National Enquirer with a threat to publish post and photos of his extramarital affair.

Swiftly, Jeff launched an investigation into real motives behind The National Enquirer and indeed its parent company, American Media Inc. But the Bezos accused AMI of threat to publish explicit photos unless he stopped the planned investigation

Here his reaction "Of course I don’t want personal photos published, but I also won't participate in their well-known practice of blackmail, political favors, political attacks and corruption," Bezos wrote. "I prefer to stand up, roll this log over and see what crawls out."

Bezos Jeff message of encouragement for to be Entrepreneurs One day, during Amazon re:Mars conference in Las Vegas , Jeff made several encouraging speeches to encourage to be entrepreneurs across the world.

If you have a business idea with no risk, it's probably already being done," again he said: "You've got to have something that might not work. It will be, in many ways, an experiment."

He added that many of those experiments sometimes will certainly fail, However, "big failures" almost all the time are inevitable and necessary tool that form part of the journey toward success that you need in the overall outcome of your business success, honestly speaking.

"We take risks all the time, we talk about failure," he said. "We need big failures in order to move the needle. If we don't, we're not swinging enough. You really should be swinging hard, and you will fail, but that's okay."

Jeff said that more to taking risks and failing, the entrepreneurs must also be passionate and consistence to help achieve the overall goal.

"You'll be competing against those who are passionate," he said. He further stressed that , entrepreneurs should try to be "customer-obsessed."

"The most important thing is to be customer-obsessed," he said. "Don't satisfy them, absolutely delight them."
