"I lost over $38 billion in cash and 35% of Amazon to my ex-wife, MacKenzie." By then, it was worth about $76 billion." __Jeff Bezos
"I can never make the mistake of marrying again. I was married to my ex-wife Mackenzie for over 25 years, but she woke up one day and told me she was tired of our boring marriage and wanted a divorce.
And when I asked him if there was anything he could do to change his mind, he told me that if I could give him half of my $76 billion fortune and 50% of the shares of my company, Amazon, he would consider staying....
I begged her not to file for divorce, but she still went ahead and filed for divorce. Then I realized if I gave her half of my wealth she asked for, she would still file for a divorce afterwards and keep half of what I had left so I let her.
When we got to court, my lawyer could only give him half of my cash and 35% of Amazon. If she was able to do this to me after 25 years of marriage, it just means marriage is not for a man. I will never marry again because I am not a women empowerment agency. " ~
