For almost 5 or 6 years he tried his best and he created and put all his money in the site developing and stuff but he made loss and people around him used to say you will not success but he believed that in future people are going to use net to buy things instate of going to shops or other stores. So after 6 years he made success and gained double what he lost in the past. While many dot.coms of the early 90s went bust, but Amazon on flourished with yearly sales that jumped from $510,000 in 1995 to over $17 billion in 2011.
