Amazon.com, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Prime is today one of the most successful loyalty programs in retail history, but when it first launched, Jeff Bezos and his team faced major concerns about whether the service would work—or even bankrupt the company.
What Happened: In a 2018 interview with David Rubenstein, Bezos reflected on how Amazon Prime started as an idea from a junior software engineer.
Rather than a traditional loyalty program, the initial concept was for an "all-you-can-eat buffet" of fast, free shipping. However, when Amazon's finance team ran the numbers, the outlook was grim.

"The results were horrifying," Bezos admitted. "Shipping is expensive, and we were offering unlimited free shipping." The biggest fear? That the heaviest users—the ones who ordered the most—would flock to the service first, making it an unsustainable financial burden.
Despite the risks, Bezos saw potential. "All good decisions require some level of instinct and risk-taking," he said, underscoring how trial and error were central to Amazon's growth.

Why It Matters: Launched in 2005 for $79 per year, the service provided unlimited two-day shipping, redefining consumer expectations and making Amazon the dominant force in e-commerce.
Though risky at first, Bezos's instincts paid off—Prime members <a href="https://www.vox.com/recode/2019/5/3/18511544/amazon-prime-oral-history-jeff-bezos-one-day-shipping">spend</a> more and shop more frequently than non-members, helping Amazon surpass a $2 trillion valuation while competitors like eBay stagnated ($31.06 billion).
Since its launch in the U.S., Amazon Prime has grown to serve over 20 countries, amassing a global membership exceeding 200 million, according <a href="https://www.statista.com/topics/4076/amazon-prime/?__sso_cookie_checker=failed#:~:text=Since%20Amazon%20Prime%20was%20first,a%20monthly%20or%20annual%20fee.">to</a> Statista.
Last month, Amazon.com reported <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/02/43545590/amazoncom-q4-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-most-successful-holiday-shopping-season-in-company-history">fourth-quarter net sales</a> of $187.8 billion, marking a 10% increase year-over-year. The figure surpassed Wall Street&#8217;s consensus estimate of $187.3 billion.
Year-to-date Amazon stock has declined by 7.46%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Jeff Bezos Said 'Results Were Horrifying' After Amazon Prime's Free Shipping Introduction But He Went Ahead With It Because Good Decisions Require 'Instinct And Risk-Taking'

Most people <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43190697/mark-cubans-black-amex-card-got-declined-buying-a-140000-bottle-of-champagne-to-celebrate-teams-nba-win-can-i-please-spend-some-money">celebrate a big payday</a> with a fancy purchase. A luxury car. A designer watch. Maybe even a yacht. Not Mark Cuban.
At 32, after selling his first startup, MicroSolutions, for $6 million, Cuban marked the moment by doing the exact opposite—he threw away his watch. He didn't want to be tied to anyone else's schedule ever again. "I didn't wear a watch for 30 years because I didn't want to be on anybody else's time," Cuban said in a December <a href="https://youtu.be/rBxSEVz4dAY?si=_ePP7myQqHXEYZSy">interview with People</a>.

<li>Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</a></li>
<li>It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a></li>
</ul>
For Cuban, time isn't just money—it's control. After years of working for other people, answering to schedules that weren't his own, he vowed that when he had the financial freedom, he wouldn't let anyone dictate his time. Even now, as a billionaire entrepreneur, former NBA team owner, and Shark Tank investor, he sticks to that rule.
And if you're hoping to catch Cuban on a phone call or in a meeting, good luck. "Am I going to meetings? No. Am I taking phone calls? No. Am I going to some office somewhere? No," Cuban said in the interview. "I can get everything done by sitting on a laptop or a phone anywhere in the world."
Instead, Cuban runs his empire through email. "People pretty much kiss my a&#x2A;&#x2A; when it comes to business," he admitted. "I can tell them I'm doing everything via email. Period. End of story."

It's a strategy that might seem unconventional, but it's clearly working. Cuban, who later co-founded Broadcast.com which Yahoo bought for $5.7 billion in 1999, built his fortune by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/44047870/mark-cuban-said-no-to-uber-at-a-10m-valuation-it-opened-at-82b-and-he-missed-an-819900-windfall-i-mean-ive-done-ok-but-still">staying ahead of trends</a> and cutting out inefficiencies. His email-only approach eliminates wasted time, allowing him to focus on what actually moves the needle.
Mark Cuban has never followed the traditional playbook. He bought the Dallas Mavericks for $285 million in 2000, led them to their first NBA championship in 2011, and sold a 69% stake in 2023 in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/08/40463542/mark-cuban-sold-his-nba-team-because-the-next-wave-of-revenue-generation-is-around-real-estate-and-a">deal valuing the team at around $4 billion</a>.
For those willing to take risks, he suggests allocating up to 10% of savings into high-risk ventures, but only if they're comfortable <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43468964/mark-cuban-says-if-you-want-to-get-rich-throw-a-hail-mary-and-invest-10-of-savings-in-bitcoin-but-you-must-pretend-you-already-lost-it">considering that money already lost</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;
But his success wasn't just luck or good timing. He lived cheaply, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40442345/mark-cuban-says-he-drove-cars-that-cost-200-with-holes-in-the-floorboard-and-lived-off-mac-and-c">drove a $200 car</a>, and avoided credit cards like the plague. He didn't just want to be rich—he wanted complete control over his time and choices. And that, more than anything, is what wealth means to him.

Michael Saylor's Strategy Inc Along With CrowdStrike, Best Buy, Credo Technology, And Tesla: Why Are These 5 Stocks On Investors' Radars Today

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Tuesday that Canada would impose retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports, after President Donald Trump placed 25% <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/03/44121022/trumps-25-tariffs-on-auto-imports-are-worth-the-short-term-pain-says-ohio-gop-senator">levies on Canadian imports.</a>
The Details: Trudeau said the measures include a 25% tariff on CA$30 billion worth of U.S. goods, effective immediately, with an additional CA$125 billion in U.S. products facing the same 25% tariff in three weeks.

Trump responded with a post from his Truth Social account that warned of increased tariffs equal to Canada's retaliatory measures.&nbsp;
"Please explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!" Trump wrote. 
Trump's 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada and an additional 10% on goods from China unfolded into a trade war with China and Canada both pledging retaliatory tariffs. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum stated that Mexico would respond with tariffs to be announced on Sunday.
The Dow Jones has shed more than 1300 points in the last two days as events have unfolded. The Nasdaq Composite ended Tuesday's session down by 0.4%, despite a rebound in big tech stocks like NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and the S&amp;P 500 has erased all of its post-election gains.&nbsp;
Late Tuesday afternoon, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said there could be an announcement from the Trump administration regarding some relief for goods from Mexico and Canada covered under the North American Free Trade Agreement.&nbsp;
"Both the Mexicans and the Canadians were on the phone with me all day today trying to show that they'll do better, and the president's listening, because you know he's very, very fair and very reasonable," Lutnick said in an interview with Fox Business.&nbsp;
"So I think he's going to work something out with them — it's not going to be a pause, none of that pause stuff, but I think he's going to figure out: you do more and I'll meet you in the middle some way and we're going to probably announcing that tomorrow, " Lutnick said.&nbsp;
What Else: President Trump is set<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/03/44102399/heres-how-to-watch-donald-trumps-address-to-congress-time-date-and-what-to-expect"> to address</a> Congress in the House chamber at 9 pm. ET Tuesday where he is expected to outline his administration&#8217;s key priorities, possibly touching on economic plans including tariffs and foreign relations.

Trump Threatens More Tariffs After Canada Retaliates, Commerce Secretary Lutnick Says Relief Could Be Announced Wednesday

If making your first million dollars feels like an uphill battle, you're not imagining it. According to entrepreneur and investor Kevin O'Leary, that first big financial milestone is the hardest to reach. But once you get there? Surprisingly, the next few million come much faster.
"It's almost impossible to make your first million dollars. You work your a off. It's so hard," O'Leary said in a 2023 <a href="https://youtube.com/shorts/gOM0bh8vXnU?si=kpnH2bTOzPHHFaIY">YouTube video</a>. "What it really takes is having the discipline to not buy sh&#x2A;t you don't need."

</ul>
O'Leary—who built his fortune after selling his software company for $4.2 billion—knows a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42935505/kevin-olearys-worst-shark-tank-investment-ever-cost-him-500000-because-he-ignored-the-red-flags-the-lesson-is-listen-to-your-gut">thing or two about wealth-building</a>. And he's blunt about the biggest roadblock to hitting that first million: people spend too much money on things that don't matter.
He constantly preaches the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43946260/kevin-oleary-says-people-waste-15k-a-year-on-stupid-stuff-like-buying-lunch-at-work-it-costs-you-99-cents-to-make-a-sandwich">dangers of unnecessary spending</a>, whether it's a $5.50 coffee or a $15 work lunch when you could bring a sandwich from home for less than a buck. To O'Leary, financial success isn't just about making money—it's about keeping it.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why Getting to $5 Million Is Easier Than Hitting $1 Million</h2>
After finally crossing that million-dollar mark, O'Leary set his next goal at $5 million. At first, he thought it would be just as brutal. But to his surprise, it wasn't.
"It's gonna be impossible," he recalled thinking. "But it wasn't as hard to get to $5 million as it was to get to $1 million."
Trending: Inspired by Uber and Airbnb &#8211; Deloitte's fastest-growing software company is transforming 7 billion smartphones into income-generating assets &#8211; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">with $1,000 you can invest at just $0.26/share!</a>
The reason? Money makes money. Once you've got a solid amount saved and invested, you're no longer relying just on your job or business. Compound interest, smart investing, and higher-return opportunities start working in your favor.
O'Leary isn't the only wealthy investor to say this. Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett's longtime business partner, famously said the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43759618/charlie-munger-said-the-hardest-part-of-getting-rich-is-the-first-100000-but-from-there-it-snowballs-and-you-can-ease-off-the-gas">first $100,000 was the hardest</a> to reach. After that, investments start snowballing.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How Fast Can You Really Get to $5 Million?</h2>
<ul>
<li>Invest $1 million at an 8% return, and you'll earn $80,000 per year—without lifting a finger.</li>
<li>At $2 million, that return jumps to $160,000 per year.</li>
<li>At $5 million, it's $400,000 annually.</li>
</ul>
That's why the first million is the hardest. You're earning from a job or business, making every dollar saved feel like a grind. But once you cross that threshold, your money starts doing the work for you.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">But Is It Really That Fast?</h2>
O'Leary makes it sound easy, but the timeline depends on how much you invest along the way:
<ul>
<li>No extra contributions = $1 million grows to $5 million in about 21 years.</li>
<li>Adding $10,000 per year shaves it down to 20 years.</li>
<li>Investing $25,000 per year speeds it up to 18 years.</li>
</ul>
Yes, money makes money—but this isn't an overnight success story. If you want to reach $5 million faster, you need to do more than let the market do the work.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">So, Is $5 Million Easier Than the First Million?</h2>
O'Leary says yes—but only if you're making smart financial moves. If you sit back and rely solely on market growth, you might be waiting two decades to see that kind of wealth.
If you're <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">serious about building wealth</a>, the takeaway is clear: your first million is the hardest, but after that, momentum takes over—if you play it right.

Kevin O'Leary Says Making $1 Million Is 'Almost Impossible'—But Getting To $5 Million Is Surprisingly Easier

Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) confessed to spearheading a social media campaign targeting President Donald Trump. The campaign, which involved 22 Senate Democrats, was a response to a challenge thrown by billionaire tech entrepreneur Elon Musk.
What Happened: Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), had proposed to gift a Cybertruck to anyone who could authenticate the authorship of the campaign script, which he labeled as &#8220;propaganda&#8221;. The campaign comprised of nearly minute-long videos posted by the senators on their social media platforms, lambasting Trump&#8217;s &#8220;broken promises&#8221; on cost reduction for Americans.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

&mdash; Cory Booker (@CoryBooker) <a href="https://twitter.com/CoryBooker/status/1896994976103588095?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 4, 2025</a></blockquote>

Booker, the head of the Senate Democratic Leadership Team, retorted to Musk&#8217;s challenge, asserting, &#8220;Clearly you are triggered by the truth. It was me. Keep your truck.&#8221; 
The videos underscored the escalating prices during Trump&#8217;s presidency and his early term actions, including pardoning Jan. 6 insurrection rioters and permitting Musk to &#8220;take a chainsaw to vital government programs for Americans,&#8221; <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5175975-booker-tells-musk-hes-behind-social-media-campaign-keep-your-cybertruck/">reported</a> The Hill.
The campaign was met with criticism from conservative voices, including Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) and ex-GOP aide Scott Jennings, who advocated for more authenticity in politicians.

However, this political association has seemingly impacted Tesla&#8217;s sales.
Tesla&#8217;s sales in California <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/25/02/43447273/tesla-sales-drop-12-in-california-is-elon-musks-support-for-donald-trump-hurting-ev-sales">dropped by 12% in 2024</a>, raising questions about whether Musk&#8217;s political support for Trump was hurting the brand.
By March, Tesla&#8217;s sales <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/global/25/03/44128646/tesla-sales-drop-in-europe-in-february-some-countries-down-over-40-is-musks-political-push-hurting-ev-company">continued to plummet in Europe</a>, with some countries experiencing over a 40% drop. The decline in sales was attributed to Musk&#8217;s increasing political involvement and calls for boycotts of the brand.
Since 2025 began, Tesla stock has fallen by almost 30%, with an over 30% fall registered in the last month alone. Even so, the stock is up over 40% over 12 months.

Here's How Much $100 Invested In S&P Global 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

Rachel Cruze, daughter of financial expert <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43970634/to-be-unemployed-in-america-today-is-crazy-dave-ramsey-says-theres-always-a-way-to-make-more-money">Dave Ramsey</a>, is well-known for her approach to teaching financial literacy. Raised in a home where money wasn't a taboo subject but part of everyday conversation, she learned early on how to manage her finances—and now, as a parent herself, she's passing those lessons on to her own kids.
In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaK4CUODqYw">recent interview</a> on the &#8220;Who Ya Know Show&#8221; by ClearPath Wealth Strategies, Cruze shared insights into her upbringing and how her parents, particularly her father, subtly but effectively taught her the foundational principles of financial responsibility.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Growing Up with Practical Financial Lessons</h2>
In the interview, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/42024498/it-sounds-like-a-relationship-issue-ramsey-show-hosts-on-fathers-100k-paycut-and-3000-mile-move">Cruze</a> was asked what it was like growing up with Ramsey and all the lessons she learned. She laughed and said she gets that question a lot.&nbsp;
"I think people have this idea in their head that if you&#8217;re Dave Ramsey&#8217;s daughter that we talked about mutual funds all the time and had like budget camps in the summer," she said. "Thankfully that was not the case."
Cruze said her parents took a more natural approach to money, weaving it into daily life. &#8220;You just talk about life, and money is part of life,&#8221; she explained. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43962953/she-didnt-know-until-her-credit-score-tanked-dave-ramsey-caller-says-son-in-law-lost-everything-day-trading-and-maxed-his-wifes-card">Money management</a> wasn't taught as a separate class or activity; instead, it was a part of regular family conversations. Her parents made sure that financial wisdom was learned organically, through the way they lived and managed their own money.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Earning Money Through Work, Not Allowance</h2>
Cruze gave an example of these natural finance lessons in the family's chore system. Instead of being given an allowance, she and her siblings were given a commission. If they did their jobs, they got paid; if they didn't, they didn't. This approach helped her understand the value of earning money early on.
Once she had the money, her parents introduced &#8220;give, save, and spend&#8221; jars, where Cruze and her siblings had to actively manage their money, dividing it into three categories: money to donate, money to save, and money to spend. &#8220;They didn&#8217;t even dictate how much to put in each, they let us do it,&#8221; Cruze recalled.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Handling Money Like an Adult</h2>
As Cruze grew older, her financial education became even more hands-on. At a young age, her parents set her up with a checking account. While many of her friends received money from their parents without much explanation, Cruze was responsible for managing her own account. She learned how to write checks, balance a checkbook, and reconcile her account—skills that many young people don't get until later in life.
&#8220;I had to manage that as a teenager,&#8221; she said.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Emotional Side of Money</h2>
Beyond the technical side of money, Cruze's parents placed a strong emphasis on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41662332/financial-stress-why-women-and-gen-xers-are-feeling-the-pinch-more-than-others">emotional side of finances</a>. They taught her about the importance of contentment, generosity, and not letting money define her happiness or self-worth.
This mindset encouraged Cruze to avoid the trap of materialism. Rather than seeing money as something to hoard or use to show off, her parents focused on how to use money in a way that added value to life—by giving back, being responsible, and living a life of gratitude.
Cruze&#8217;s upbringing shows that financial education doesn&#8217;t have to be formal—it&#8217;s about making money a natural part of life. By blending practical skills with emotional values, her parents set the stage for a well-rounded approach to managing money.
