Hey ... 25% of Amazon is still quite a large sum.

Her brother would never have given out the information without her knowing about it.

Bezos may have had something on the missus. With that in mind, it’s just a matter of having the dirt on him come out of the wash some other way.

I don’t think she’s mad at her brother, at all.

Bezos on the other hand, is clearly thinking with his little head if he’s still with the Tramp. I’m not she actually ‘sold’ him her sex, hence calling her a Tramp.

Well, “We’ll see.”

I’ll keep my eye peeled for new developments while I’m waiting in line at the market checkout.

An old friend of mine was the lead divorce attorney for the wife of Craig McCaw here in Seattle in the late 90’s and at the time was the richest divorce settlement in history.

Basically when they split the sheets the deal was that he agreed to allow her to invest in all of his future ventures as a partner so that if he made money, she made money.

I stopped reading them, even standing in line, decades ago.

I really hope you’re kidding.

Although....the factiod sheets did break the Clinton/Lewinski story when the MSM refused to cover it.

LOL

I think this is smart. She gets paid and gets to move on with her life.

If she fights for half, Bezos could drag it out for years arguing over valuation of assets and using legal trickery. The total amount would end up being less and the Amazon brand suffers. Maybe that’s not bad, but what is going to be bad is that unless one of them makes a big change in net worth, they’ll be near each other in media profiles of the richest American billionaires for the rest of her life.

If she takes 25%, it gets over quickly, she will probably get to pick certain pet assets to take, and she still has more money than she could spend. Being a tier down on the most prominent list of billionaires also let’s her keep a lower public profile, which is probably worth more than an extra few billion when you already have several.

Can he still be seriously thinking of keeping his mistress in light of the fact that her brother sold the naked photos, and story for cash? Not to mention the fact that his mistress stored the photos on one of her devices, then gave access to that device, to her assistant. She’s not very bright either. Does he really want to be a part of that family? If he’s dumb enough to stay. I hope it ends up costing him a whole lot more money.

The Daily Fail makes it sound like she somehow got ripoffed. 32 billion is pretty good pay for screwing around, and jetting off to parties by yourselves, and denying sex to a guy like Bozo.

“Paul McCartney did much better: 4% of wealth to ex. But that’s in the UK with better laws in this area.”

Billy Shears. Paul died in the 60s. George Harrison called him Fauxl for years and often referred to him as Bill.

Was that plastic-faced whore Dirty Sanchez really worth $32 billion?

True, but then she didn't marry him when he was still playing dives in Hamburg. Mrs. Bezos predates Amazon.

I don’t know of any divorce in the US, of a wealthy couple, that went anywhere close to 96-4 without a pre nuptial. Unless there were other potentially criminal circumstances that caused the party on the light side to back off.

Re: Heather Mills getting 4% of McCartney’s net worth, IMO, way too much. She didn’t have a leg to stand on in that case.

You may first have to create a banking organization, a hosting organisation, a payment organization, et cetera, et al.
