Actually, Blue Origin beat SpaceX to land a booster. The difference is that BO landed New Shepard, which can barely bump a manned capsule over the Karman line, whereas SpaceX is landing an orbital-class booster, which is a much more difficult proposition. I do agree though that SpaceX has used their money much more efficiently and moved a lot faster in general than BO.
