"As our family and close friends know, after a long period of loving exploration and trial separation, we have decided to divorce and continue our shared lives as friends," the couple wrote in the statement.

Child support goes away as soon as each child turns 18.
This is why my ex threw my son out within days of his 18th birthday, a coincidence not lost on him.
If you've been married 7 years, alimony NEVER goes away.
This is why we got divorced at 6-1/2 years.
25 years and 4 kids.
RE: In California, half.
Bezos lives in Washington State if I remember correctly.
With free two-day shipping.
Who the hell names their daughter Mackinzie?
From the pic in the story, she is cute, smile is a little gummy, but I could live with it.
Sad, sad, sad.
One of these days, both he and the ex will find out money isn’t everything. Not to mention, being a child of divorce myself, what are the kids thinking?
Depending on the state of their legal residence, she may easily get half.
Lol!
He will soon no longer be the wealthiest man in the world.
That’s what I was thinking this morning when my Amazon Echo suddenly broke into tears .....
“You’d think from their press release that they really really still like each other.”
Bezos is WaPo...written lies come naturally to him.

There is not a woman on earth that does not require more effort than they are worth. The mother of your children however, deserves respect, love, care, and support. At 50+ many men just get burned out and the effort required becomes too big a price to pay. The “mid life crisis” makes many reassess the future, jettison the “excess baggage” and start over, often with disastrous consequences for all involved.
Inherited assets are usually NOT considered community property.
“Money doesn’t matter as you get older and find yourself alone in your golden years...”
Bezos’ older years aren’t golden, they’re more like double platinum with a few large shots of plutonium mixed in for measure.
I’m alone in my Golden Years—and love it.

Amazon drivers have been known to do that to stay on schedule.

Why is everyone assuming that any new side piece is a chick...?
It’s not going to effect him much, but he is still going to pay her 68 Billion dollars.
