    Young Gun you are correct in that "many people/companies don't make money from the internet". Like the gold rush many profited not from finding gold but from selling the tools and travel to the gold rush sites. A lot of business make money from the internet such as copy writers, web...

    Yes but the problem is in cost of the last mile. Unless you have a digital product of course. Amazon had to ditch UPS for the most part and go to Uber like private delivery to get their costs down. No doubt that there is a strong trend to online retail but it still is very small and will...

    I just checked again and the last quarter of 2016 shows only 8.3% of retail sales are from online - so almost 92% is brick and mortar. Amazon is opening physical stores. The source is: US E-Commerce Sales as Percent of Retail Sales

    Less than 10% of retail sales are accounted for online! The last recordable number was just over 6%. So if 90+% is brick and mortar why go with online? Stores are going under because they leveraged too much with OPM - Other Peoples Money - specifically easy credit. Consumers are moving...

    Why only certain people "enjoy" the process? (Or is it something else?)

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    There is a great book called Shop Class for the Soulcraft that examines the changes from building/making things (motorcycle, woodworking, etc.) to the move of more of an abstract services or information work. Back in the day we all were part of a process of building something physical. You...

    A little known fact is of 2012 (last actual data report) only 2.96% of products we buy in the USA are sourced in China! Yes it might be slightly higher as of today but still not a high percentage. Speaking of import/export the top three exports (from the USA to others) are: Machinery...

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Thanks for sharing all the great knowledge. Honestly for me the real holy grail of info is in the process or how, not the physical "what" . Anybody who wants to know about the "what" is either a sorry-a$$ copycat who is doomed for failure or doesn't get that it has no relevance. I can tell...
