The 'aha'' moment that changed Jeff Bezos' life involved realizing he wasn't the best in his physics class. (via CNBCMakeIt)
, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is certainly the richest person in the world, but he may not be the smartest. At least that's what Bezos thought as a college student.
"I looked around the room and it was clear to me that there were three people in the class who were much, much better at [physics] than I was, and it was much, much easier for them," Bezos told Wired in 1999. in September 2018. "It's really really hard. I'm studying with my roommate, Joe, who is also really good at math. The two of us worked on this one homework problem for three hours and got nowhere.""We show him this problem, and he looks at it, stares at it for a while, and says ', that's the answer.' And i'm like 'That's the answer?' And he's like 'Yes, let me show you,'" Bezos said.
