u dont get it? That woman started life with him..

Not in this country where more than 80% of the ladies marry already made men who did the hustle all alone..

This man and his wife did the hustle together dear and she is worth the settlement..


Not true

Even if she married him when rich she will still get divorce settlement based on some procedures
Happened to Eddy Murphy and other celebrities.

This happens when one partner earns more than the other.

Nigeria is just a lawless country.


Even if the woman built the properties from her little income the justice system is useless for her

did you know that idiot footballer infected her with HIV?
And is Hiv positive himself due to his recklessness and lack of discipline?


he deserved the boot


Just that he, just like many other African men like him come from a place that excuses the foolishness of men and give them a pat on the back

Are there not many many many black men in Europe married to their white wives for decades and no wahala?

Nigeria is not useless.. I support such law only when the woman contributed to the man's life.. Not a gold digger who comes into a man's life, after a while, divorce him just to share in his wealth..

i dont want to laugh, why do you feel pain and also who told you the mr jeff is working for humanity rather than for shareholders and profit, if he really cared about humanity as the normal rhetoric for startups, he would have made all his services open source and also free of charge then no one would have become billionaires.

How infantile do you have to be to construe my strongly worded statement to mean painful? What do I care when a billionaire's wife becomes a billionaire? I just see no difference between Mackenzie and the Russian Oligarchs who bought vast national enterprises for as low $1, becoming instant billionaires in the process, simply because they were friends of Putin and his political circle.

Neither party earned their wealth. And it reflects poorly on our current economic system that someone can f*ck her way to $35b and draft it under the shabby cloak of I married him before he was a billionaire. What exactly did she do that earned her that $35b? Raising four kids with the help of nannies and cooks in million dollar properties? Balancing the books in the first few months while other employees practically worked round the clock for years and weekend days off was unacceptable? What did she do other than f*cking Bezos to deserve $35b?

I didn't say he's working for humanity. Go buy prescription glasses if you're having problems reading. I explicitly said "contributions to humanity." This is factually accurate as his investments in AI, space exploration to make mankind to spacefaring species, green transportation, amongst others are critical to the next millenium of humanity's prosperity.

Until now, Elon Musk has been the sole flag bearer. It's fortuitous for billionaires to not just rest on their oars but channel their vast wealth into combating problems most people are too pedantic to realize much less understand.

And if one is able to provide contributions of economic value, such person is entitled to profiting from said contributions. NOTHING IS FREE. Even charities need donors to stay operational.

Forgiving? He paid the best lawyers, dude.

And you think she did not have the best lawyers? Marriage in the US is not Nigeria, she willingly relinquished control and voting rights, compared to how messy some women can be, she was very lenient and just stuck with her shares of Amazon. Many women would want more and more... There's nothing any lawyer would do to change the community property law, even Mr. Bezos knows this. All lawyers will do is drag the case for more money... As simple as it was, divorce was finalized in such a short period. So trust me, she was very lenient.

Well

What's the worst case scenario, assuming she wanted to be messy?

I'm sure it may not be more the 50% of total assets

with good lawyers, a man can minimize his "casualty )" in the event of a divorce

Not that he will not pay up; but impact will be reduced

pacespot:
this couple were unable to manage the temptation of unprecedented financial success that bequeathed their marriage. they were unlike Bill and Melinda Gates. how can you divorce someone you have spent probably the most successful years of your life with, how can they keep up being apart?

well, since this is a peaceful divorce, we can look forward to a reunion in future.

I don't think it's a question of being "unable to manage the temptation of unprecedented financial success that bequeathed their marriage."

Bezos was a very driven man, so he'd have been successful at whatever he set his mind on. Maybe not a billionaire, but millionaire easy. I think their divorce announcement text was lucid. Their marriage was a phase of their lives that was just that--a phase. They're at the end of it and they're heading off in new directions while remaining friends.

What informs this summation on my part is how they got together. As a high-level hedge fund staff, Bezos was already at the top of the bachelor totem pole. However, in his words, he was romantically undesirable. He wasn't the kind of guy, even with the financial stability, who ladies wanted to be with after an half-hour of discussion.

He had to resort to asking friends to set him up and at a time became a self-professed "professional dater." Couldn't hold down a relationship. This was a problem because he desperately wanted to settle down. It was at this time that he hired Mackenzie. And surprise surprise--according to the account I read--Mackenzie was the one who asked him out shortly after she started working for him. They dated for all of 3 months, engaged and married soon after. This was 1993.

As such if you understand behavioral psychology, it is inevitable that there would come a time after a subject has gone from romantically undesirable finance geek to hung $130b richest-man-in-the-world mogul who just wants to have the sexual liberty he supposedly missed out on. It explains why he was fawning about a lady who by any objective standards is less attractive than Mackenzie.

It's sad he had to cheat on her, but when you're richer than certain countries, built a company whose rumors can tank the stocks of other companies, funded a rocket company with play money and have access to ICBM technology owned by less than a dozen countries; it's understandable to develop a god complex that makes you think societal rules are exclusively for the proles.

This is similar to 19-23 year olds who marry early then in their 30s and 40s begin to have a mid-life crises about why the f*ck they wasted their prime years raising a family and what's next for them. And at some point find their way to AshleyMadison.

Maybe they'd get together later and to be sure ladies like Mackenzie and Melinda are the kind of women one could hope for as a billionaire, but even if Jeff had only become a millionaire, it is unlikely this marriage was a till-death-do-us-part Disney fairytale. I'm happy for Mackenzie especially, and hope the next phase of their lives will be as eventful as their recent phase was.

As simple as it was, divorce was finalized in such a short period. So trust me, she was very lenient.

And marriage for the average Joe in the US is not the same for billionaires.

If she wanted to be messy she'd have faced far more adversity than women who fight over $5b or less. Stock would have tanked. Bezos would lose his control which would have been bad for the entire Bezos family. Bezos' parents are worth about $30b, most of it in Amazon stock. And they have 4 kids.

So she wouldn't just be fighting Bezos, she'd be fighting everyone from his parents to institutional investors with trillions in assets who HATE chaos. Because no financial manager in his/her right mind would gleefully accept an English major with no high-level skillset in organizational management to have any measurable sort of say in a potential trillion dollar company, just because she f*cked the company founder.

Simply put, it was in her best interest to take what she could get without a fuzz. Moreover wealthy billionaires rarely if ever settle half of their wealth. Rupert Murdoch is worth $18b. His ex-wife of 31 years got $2.6b.

She's an English graduate who got her big break working as a research assistant under Bezos. And she's a very private person. Bezos on the other hand is taking on the POTUS 45 and Saudi Arabia at a go and according to those who know him in the business world he's a bloody shark. It's heavily mismatched. She may get a few extra billions but the cost of doing so in the public eye... Man. Fighting for $65b, that's more money that's in our reserve. No one would give that up lying down especially when she wants to get messy.

She wasn't lenient. She took the best advised route.
