> All businesses are about money. Everything else comes second. That does not explain why Facebook did not make money for the first nine years (2004-2012) of their existence. They were not worried about that. It also does not explain why Amazon still does not seek to make one dollar in profits. Amazon has not made profits for almost 20 years. Jef Bezos is simply not interested in that. Both examples still utterly destroyed their merely profit-seeking competitors. Successful entrepreneurs (Such as e.g. Steve Jobs) are evangelical. They staunchly believe in something. They also manage to convert staff and users to their belief by successfully evangelizing their views. A mere money grubber will never succeed in doing that. What is the mere money grubber going to tell the world? That he wants money and that the world should give him money? Seriously, what would be the message of a money grubber? Why would anybody believe him? They obviously won't.
