在1999年接受《60分鐘》採訪時，亞馬遜公司創始人傑夫·貝佐斯透露了他的獨特人生哲學，他稱之爲“避免遺憾的框架”。
What Happened: In the interview, Bezos spoke about his life philosophy and detailed his choice to depart from Wall Street. He said, "The way I made the decision to leave Wall Street and do this was... it was a regret minimization framework."

他認爲，許多人，無論是有意還是無意地堅持着類似的哲學。“很多人這樣做，即使他們不把它稱之爲避免遺憾的框架，他們仍然以這種方式行事。他們那樣思考，”他說。
Bezos also stated that his philosophy is not about seizing the day or indulging in pleasures, but about making decisions that will minimize future regrets. He stated, "I don't go in for carpe diem. I go in for regret minimization framework."
貝佐斯還表示，他的哲學不是關於抓住當下或沉溺於快樂，而是關於做出將最小化未來遺憾的決策。他說：“我不追求抓住當下，我追求避免遺憾的框架。”
