At that age, Jeff asked for a bed and not a place to sleep in a crib. But because it is not unusual given the bed Jeff dismantle his crib with a screwdriver. At school, the teachers find it difficult to stop Jeff from the task done. To move to the next task, they have to move Jeff to lift the seat being occupied.

Jeff's grandfather, Preston Gise the western region manager of the Atomic Energy Commission where he was responsible for the laboratory at Sandia, Lawrence Livermore, and Los Almos. At the ten-year-old Jeff, Jeff spent the summer with his grandfather in southwest Texas. Preston saw her grandson was a young scientist as he was. Then, she helped her grandson make amateur radio Heatkit and help Jeff in collecting a wide range of objects-sometimes-often undermine parents Bezos's garage.

After high school, Jeff attended the University of Princeton. He majored in physics but then he moved on faculty to explore the computer so he graduated with a degree in computer science and electrical engineering. After graduating from college, Jeff worked on Wall Street. He built a computer network in a building company FITEL. Then Jeff was working as the D.E. Shaw & Co. as vice president, but was then just turned 28 years old. His boss at the time, David Shaw, asked Jeff to examine not only new business, but also a new internet business opportunities.

Jeff was thinking that could be sold on the internet. He made a list of 20 best-selling items are sold by mail. He also studied the list and the book was ranked at the top. According to the book business is big business, but no one is dominating. He realized there is no data bank by mail order to load all the available titles in one year. According to him, a computerized data bank and may be able to organize an online bookstore can be accessed via the internet. But when Jeff told me, his boss was not interested in Shaw.

Jeff was discussing this with colleagues, MacKenzie. They then wanted to try it for yourself. Jeff was thinking about a suitable name for his business. He began looking for the name "A". Finally he found a suitable name that is Amazon.com. According to Amazon is the largest river, which represents the largest collection in the world. In November 1994, Jeff and a few colleagues, MacKenzie, Shel, and Paul began working in a cramped garage used as an office.

At that time he had two problems. The first problem is money. Amazon.com should be able to pay the people who make their business run. So, Jeff formed the company and he holds a position as founder, CEO, board of directors and president. The second is software. The only software available is to manage inventory and process orders for designs for business orders via regular mail. But thanks to their persistence, they can be overcome.
