    Just because you are a big buyer of product X, it does not necessarily mean you are the best-suited person to run a company producing it.

          I was wondering.

          If we were to kill Bezos and cut him into 8 billion pieces and feed it to the entire population of Earth.

          Could we make everyone rich?

          Or does it take a specific threshold of cannibalism to make someone into what they eat?

      Just because you own it doesn’t mean you have to run it. Thats what CEOs are for. They often don’t own the company they run.
