Many investors are looking for the next Amazon. The truth is that there won’t be another Amazon in the near future. Amazon famously started as an online bookseller and grew to a global powerhouse.

A popular story is that Amazon needed to size its business for the rush of the Christmas shopping season.

While Jimmy is still at the helm of that service, I’ve since moved on to greener pastures. But I still carry the experiences I learned with me to this very day. That’s because the Maximum Profit system flies directly in the face of what most of the mainstream financial media tells us “works” in the market. But they couldn’t be more wrong. So today, I’d like to pull back the curtain a bit and walk you through how the system works.
