“As the richest man and with Amazon the most valuable company on the planet”

I remember something about gaining the world and losing your soul.

Well that was a given long before the fallout... Assuming his wife truly fights him, She’ll be taking more than half of everything and he doesn’t have the cash to buy her out... so he’s going to have to cash out and sell a LOT of things.

Gee I wonder which other tech giant the gubmint will turn to for cloud-based storage? This has corporate espionage written all over it.

Pretty sure it had “Kiss it” written all over it. But you might be right, letting the pic get out might have been corporate espionage.

She’ll take her alimony in Amazon shares.

The question of Amazon shares becomes very important when she gets a seat on the board. One wonders how many unheeded suggestions that she made will now appear on the agenda?

It is of more than passing interest how she feels about the business of the business

BTW...... the settlement must be payed in shares since there is not enough cash to do the job

That's how George Lucas lost Pixar to Steve Jobs, who had a better idea of how to use Pixar's talents.

A person who exhibits incredibly bad judgment such as he did in texting these pictures, can only be assumed to have poor judgment in other areas. It would be very foolish to assume otherwise.

You are not thinking like a woman scorned....

If she fights him, she’ll demand CASH.

Honestly, she really decides to destroy him, she’ll demand cash payment... Force him to sell a lot of his holdings and basically permanently weaken him. Not sure how many shares he personally has, but she takes 50+% of them, I’d bet he’d lose control of the company.

Yep....... she definitely has him by the short hairs.

IMO
If she is wise enough to demand the divorce, I would assume she would be wise enough to accept her lawyers suggestion to take shares and thus the company

I can’t imagine what his teen age kids are going through. What a stupid selfish jerk Bezos turned out to be.

Why should Bezos be trusted to secure our country’s defense weapons systems and classified data storage when he can’t even protect the photos on his iPhone?

Why does the Trump hating freak have contracts with DOD in the first
place?

And then I began to wonder how long it will be until the CLASS ACTION lawyers try to cash in on this.
I mean, if it can be demonstrated that Bezos was reckless, (or whatever word/s work/s in court), and that such recklessness was the cause of loss of money by shareholders, this could take on a whole new dimension.
America - where the lawyers just keep on winning.

Microsoft stands to gain with Azure.

But Microsoft is relatively clean, so I doubt they engineered a sick pic.
