The world's richest man, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, and his wife MacKenzie have agreed a record-breaking divorce settlement of at least $35bn (£27bn).

Damn, I think this is the biggest divorce settlement in history. So tips for women, find someone rich and divorce them.  . Seriously though, it only means that even if you have all the money in the world, you can't find happiness.

What are thoughts on this?

Maybe this is madness and not a divorce.
Maybe if happiness goes, money does not have any value

$35B that's a lot of money can even save a country in debt.

But this news was old, they've been in ups and downs and now they are settling with his and her own life.

Exactly, that's how rich those guys are.

But this news was old, they've been in ups and downs and now they are settling with his and her own life. 

I think they are in speaking terms when they separated, and it's all over the media for many years now. But this one just settled everything and how much the ex-wife will be getting.

Yep, there's sort of contract that they have agreed on the terms of their separation.

For better or for worst in terms of relationship they ended up sadly but financiall, they're both successful.

The man is lucky his ex-wife was not vindictive.  She seems to be a sweet woman.  Hope them both the best for the future.

This shows women even get staisfied by living with the mot richest person on the earth. Girls want boys with money but they don't want to live with them so their main intention is making money from them.

Yes, "all's well that ends well".

@Ciscopro2000 - perhaps the wife really knows what Jeff went through to be the richest person on the planet. That's why they keep civil even if they are already separated. The wife already got what she deserved so I guess she couldn't be more happier.

Why didn't she get 50%? I thought they didn't have a prenup.

Yeah i've read that it' the most expensive divorce ever and what do we say, the wife is probably happier now that she gets her own wealth. I don't think jeff bezos thinks about the money anyway. They're both free again and they're both holding money we can only dream about. They'll probably live happily ever after.

You will necessarily have a lovely sweetheart if you spend all that money.
If this were true, he would have preserved it and not lost it
because she is beautiful.
I think it's someone who does not charge money

Some members pointed out that the ex-wife is not that vindictive, that's why she didn't asked for more. She already get tons of money and I don't think she can spend it away in her lifetime. So I guess $35 billion is more than enough for her.

She married him when Amazon was not even know or a big brand so good for her to get 25% share. That's why many marriages today have a prenup clause these days to avoid giving money after divorce but then the kids suffer financially.
