what u don't understand is that that's aerican law... secondly,they both started the company together as Mr an Mrs beezos company,not Mr bezos company...both of the. used their resources to start the company just like what Steve Jobs and wozniaki did with apple or bill gate and Allen
jeez, why are you lying? It was never a Mr and Mrs Bezoz company. Jeff was the founder (not co-founder) of Amazon, and his first investment was from his own parents.

You have no idea how their (Washington) laws work. If you don't have a prenup or postnup agreement and cannot reach an agreement on how to split the wealth, that's when the court wades in. Even then, they don't just split assets 50-50, it is split equitably (according to how much you each put in to generate the wealth).

Evidently, as Founder and CEO, Jeff put in most of the work to make Amazon what it is today. No way MacKenzie deserved half their wealth just for being his wife and occasionally helping keep record of books in its early days. If she deserved half of his wealth, she would have fought for it.

Maybe she'd have gotten more than 38bn, but half of their wealth would have been unfair and a representation of the blindly pro-women nation America is.

I was looking for Trump, on that list, I thought they said Trump is a billionaire
Don't be foolish.. they said top hundred.. if it's top #500 then you might see Trump's name there because there are thousands of more billonaire who worth $5B and below. Trump isn't even a billionaire. He's a millionaire

That shows the inequality of opportunities, cronyism, frontism, favouritism, sectionalism in the Nigerian business sphere. Yes, Dangote at no. 87...And no other Nigerian in that list that ended at 500.

What does this tell you about Nigeria? Look at orher countries in the list, how their billionaires arrived following one another.closely...Showing level playing field for all. Even Adenuga is no where to be found?
The 500th position there hangs between $4B and thereabout. Dangote is the only dollar billionaire in Nigeria. Adenuga, elumelu and co usually hang between 800- 950 million and once in a while manage to enter a billion before they drop again. Doubt those two can even be among the worlds top 2,000 because so many billionaires in their thousands are in the range of 1b - 3b.

When you are in certain countries or environment, you don't need to dream or wish of becoming a billionaire to be on world billionaires list unless you are from a highly influential political family like Aliko Dangote.


Dangote didn't become rich by hardwork or any special talent or invention, he became who he is today based on his family background which gave him political connections and favors from successive Nigerian governments.


So people should stop celebrating Dangote as if he did anything special to become rich; he was just fortunate to come from a rich family background with strong political links, nothing special undecided


People that worth celebration are the likes of Mark that invented something from nowhere at his age, people like Seun of Nairaland, people like Linda Ikeji, and all the people who worked the soil from nothing to build their wealth not people climbing through political ladder enjoying free FOREX money and government monopoly in business because of their influential family background and where they come from.



So all you Nigerians dreaming to be like Dangote, you all are wasting your time because Nigerian environment and government don't make policies that encourage and favor people from nobody's family background to climb to that ladder of becoming a billionaire in the world.


Even Otedola, his father was the former governor of Lagos. So if you look at all the so called billionaires from Nigeria, especially those from Northern Nigeria, all their wealth can be traced to politics and Nigeria's crude oil shady deals.


So if you want to become a billionaire in $$ and you are a Nigerian that doesn't come from the top looting political families in Nigeria, you are wasting your time, you better find a way to get out of Nigeria to counties like USA that support dreams of anybody ready to work and use his or her talent.


All you need to make it big in countries like USA, etc is the talent, the zeal to work and focus. Then find one challenge in the society there or a problem within your location in that country and use technology to find a solution to it and you are on your way to becoming rich, unlike in Nigeria where dreams are killed everyday, while looters, business fraudsters and political clouts are the only people that make free money and still get celebrated like they did anything special undecided
More grease to your elbow.
