If you don't like that, don't get married. Srs. It's right up there with guys who put their live-in girlfriend's name on the deed to the house because "she does so much" and then can't believe she fuarks them over even though they paid for everything. If you couldn't live with it, you shouldn't have done it.
lol, good point(s)

It was a 75/25 split and she retained 4% of Amazon stock worth $35bn. It's not that hard to understand.

Also so many assumptions being made about their marriage and how much that is worth. Absolutely pathetic and missing the bottom line.

I agree that he set himself up with owing her that much by not establishing any sort of pre or post nuptial contract when he was busy working 80 hour weeks running the business, but lets not kid ourselves that she provided $35 billion worth of support.

I could be missing something? In the age of hyper feminism I'm sure her contributions to the business, outside of raising his family, are posted online, if there are any, but I haven't seen any.
My father started a business in 1986. The business was under water for the first 5 years. Who worked 14 hours a day to help pay our bills? My mother. Who raised my brother and I so my father could travel all over the state, and region? My mother. Who worked weekends to help my father with shipments? My mother. If you think Mackenzie just sat at home heating up chicken nuggets, vacuuming and watching soap operas you're out of your mind. Amazon might not be where it is right now because of her, but without her, it might not exist at all.

I never said that, in fact, I gave credit (assuming she had no hired help to cook or clean) that it is admirable that she took care of the kids and house. My point is that even doing all that, assuming she had no help, wouldn't justify $35 billion. Like I said, he could have hired 1,000 nannies, 1,000 chefs, 1,000 accountants, etc, for 25 years and still came out cheaper.

But again, he set himself up for that payment, and like another poster said, he's lucky he didn't have to pay more since he had no prenuptial. I have no disagreement that she wasn't legally due some crazy large payment due to the legal situation he put himself in, but that doesn't mean she 'earned' billions.

You mean your personal anecdote that your mother worked 16 hours on a job to financially contribute to your parents business so it could stay afloat?

Unless I'm missing something, it has zero relevance here. Are you saying Makenzie saved Jeff's business by contributing money she earned working outside jobs to his business? If so, proof?

And you think being a supportive partner which should be a normal trait for humans is worth 35 billion dollars? Nothing justifies the gender bias when it comes to the legal system. Family court is criminal, the asset dividing, alimony, child support that gets bloated beyond any reasonable levels.

I think it should work both ways but it always ends up being a one-street of unfairness. I especially think anything BEFORE a marriage should be 100% off limits in any settlement. It even gets worse, in some countries there is "no fault" divorce. Your wife could go out and get gangbang creampied by the local hockey club, decide she doesn't want to be married with you and still be entitled to the same benefits.

Marriage is nearly a win-win for women in most countries but you never see feminists raging about this type in inequality. Some of the real-life judge rulings I've heard are worse than Hollywood horror movies. Truly revolting.

Most of the laws are outdated as well and haven't been updated from 40-50 years ago. Laws that actually served a purpose back when women had little income/spending power, so back THEN it was justified security. These days a woman can do whatever she wants if she has the ability but still gets to be protected by these laws? Yeah, zero fuking sense but they say nothing because it means more power. Every politician and male in power are too scared to call out these laws.

This. 75-25 when she'd probably be up for 50-50 in any normal situation.

Bezos is also one of the largest individual land owners in the US, and I bet he's keeping most of that chit too.

He cheated on her...

Family court is definitely bias to woman but this isn't the case here, I love how people are arguing about this when they both settled quickly out of court, mess free without their kids involved and are most likely happy with the results and can go their own way

They met and married before Bezos came up with the Amazon idea, they both quit their jobs, founded it together, and worked on it together (Mackenzie was one of the accountants and was involved in business decisions as well).

After 25 years of marriage he cheats on her - with a slag -, they go for a divorce, and she takes 25% of their shared stock, while waiving all rights related to the Washington Post and Blue Origin.

So why are we supposed to be outraged?

That bald ugly looking **** got off easy...his wife is 100x hotter then him and got w him when he was poor..he should be lucky that he got to slay any poonam when he was broke .

Here is why he got off easy..

First of all shes been w him since before he even had the idea to start Amazon.

Second she actively helped him with the business since the day that he was doing it out of the garage and she supported him struggling through it. Most wives would have told him to get a real job. She only pulled back and let him do his own thing when it started becoming mega company.


Third and most important of all he is the one that cheated on her and he is the one that asked for divorce. Not to mention he cheated on her with an uglier married women and a known Sloot who has been around the block.


If anything she let him off easy...she settled on 34 billion when she could have and frankly should have gone for half considering the dumb **** cheated on her.

Fabric of society going to ****.


“She worked at the company..” so that must mean she should get 35 bil... makes sense...

To me, im not saying mackenzie isnt worth that much. When i first heard the news i thought shed get half. She also could have dragged it out. But its funny how they come to 35 billion.i get that amazon is ridiculous..

But take another divorce where a woman stayed through a struggling business and her tribulations arent worth 35 billion

So, objectively speaking 35 bil is a weird # to come to. And lets not pretend like shes been living in squalor for the past 10 years. Im sure shes been living a life of luxury for a while

Again, my statement is less toward this particular situation, but others whom actually struggle with a failing business and dont receive 35 bil in compensation

This.

For all we know Amazon may have never existed without the emotional, financial and logistical support of Bezos wife, that is a woman you want to marry and by your side, not the gold digging hoe he cheated on her with.

It's incredibly wrong that he cheated on her after she supported him when he was just starting and she should indeed get something but this is in an ethereal plane of disproportionate rewards. That's what is wrong, because males know women can get even MORE so they panic and settle for an amount that's still criminal. Precedents like this are horrible and seeds manipulative ideas.

The very idea people are "Wow he was lucky it could have been worse" just shows you how long this bullsh*t has been going on. Divorce/family court laws need updating and I am well aware it will never happen in today's current Western climate.

Lol @ the Yahoo headline

"Jeff Bezos's wife gives him 75% of their Amazon stock and voting power in divorce"

In what upside down world did SHE give him 75% of HIS company.
