Eddie, I mean Jeff, I want half.... Bezos divorcing!

[Neilk]

So just saw the news (link) that Jeff Bezos of Amazon fame and his wife are getting what is described as an amicable divorce. The first thing I could think about is



So if you were his wife, would you be satisfied "settling" for $10,000,000,000 or do you go for more? Per the article it sounds like she was there from the beginning so it's doubtful they had a pre-nup, technically, she could get half. Best to keep her happy.

She gets half. That's the way it goes.
Could be good to break Amazon up a little.

[masraum]

Hmm, 10 billion or 80 billion. I'm pretty sure that I'd be OK with either.

[red-beard]

It will be a negotiated settlement.

[speeder]

I'd be amicable too if I was about to get tens of billions and did not have to sleep w that toad anymore.

A local oil man, Harold Hamm wrote his ex wife a check for 978 million. At first the bank would not accept it. They did decided to accept it in the end.



I had a tough time when I wrote the down payment on my house and it was only 5 figures.

Wouldn't he grant her a bunch of stock, and then she'd be on the hook for the taxes when she sold it?

Some lawyers are buying new Ferraris for their secretaries over this one.

When we were newlyweds my wife worked in a hair studio. One of her co-workers was engaged to get married, her fiance died in a car accident 2 weeks before wedding and had a life insurance policy for 1 Million and she was a benefactor.

She had to distribute the money between 5 banks.
