His neighbour isn't spending $60,000 on all of those together

Count the Fords on the street.

Now count the Amazon deliveries in a year on said same street. And next year, and the year after, and.. however long one keeps a Ford these days..

It's quite a scary thought exercise.

  • The average person spends 2,800 with prime or 1100 without. 75% of Amazon shoppers have prime so about $2500 a year. Amazon collects 35% on each sale where they ship and package for you.

    Amazon makes 800 dollars off of each person in revenue.

    Ford makes $303 per person in revenue.

    AWS makes the same.

    AI spend for all platforms $450 per person

    Their costs to produce aren't equal.
