DESCRIPTION

“A dreamy business offering has at least four characteristics. Customers love it, it can grow to very large size, it has strong returns on capital, and it’s durable in time–with the potential to endure for decades. When you find one of these, don’t just swipe right, get married.” – Jeff Bezos
