Jeff Bezos stands to lose the most ever in divorce

  • I'm no fan of Jeff Bezos, but I have a small amount of sympathy in principle. The man shrewdly acquired wealth of 137 billion dollars -- mostly by himself. Did his wife really earn a big part of that? Why should she get more than a few million which would set her up with an upper-class lifestyle (assuming she immediately retired) for the rest of her life? And that would be generous. Did his soon to be ex-wife really live an upper class lifestyle before he met her? I doubt it.

    It's not like she created or built Amazon.com.

    Just another example of why you should NOT get married unless you're a Traditional Catholic, marrying another equally-convicted Traditional Catholic. Beware converts. I didn't say "steer clear of all converts" -- I said beware -- that means be careful. Converts' Catholic roots are shallow; you don't know what they might do 20 years later under great stress or hardship.

  • Murder for hire would be cheaper in this case.

    I do not trust Jeff Bezos. I do not trust him at all.

    However, his ex-wife is stupid. Really stupid. Does she think she can get away with this?
    She will have to watch her back constantly. What a nightmare!
    Lord have mercy.

  • Again, I can understand the thinking of some MGTOW types who are saying, "Man, Jeff Bezos, that was an expensive ____." and then proceed to suggest "alternatives" that would have costed him a fraction as much money.

    I don't agree with their pagan morality, but they have a point.

  • Meh, he's got more money then he'll ever spend in this life and he can't take it with him, so what if he ends up with only a few billion after his divorce. I'm sure he'll figure out how to scrape by somehow.

    Divorce is an abomination and re-marriage (while ex-spouse survives) is not of God.

  • How do we know she is divorcing him?

    Isn't it more likely he is trading her in for an younger woman?

    I second that question ... who's idea was this divorce? He's already been seeing someone else.

    "And with all my worldy goods I thee endow."

    She had his 4 children (one is adopted) and was with him from a time before he started Amazon.  She stayed at home, ran what I were assume were very complicated domestic arrangements while he grew Amazon and probably worked insane 100 hour weeks and many weekends.  She had to deal with domestic staff, private jets, clothing, packing and up packing, sick children and have them happy and smiling for when daddy was around


    It seems perfectly reasonable to me that she gets half if he is whoremongering around with other women after a 25 year marriage  The amount of money they have as a married couple is immaterial.  He made it partially because she was supporting him as his wife.  And the whole point of being married is you EARN the money as a couple.  I am surprise you don't understand this principle as a former Seminarian and a married man.  It isn't his money.  It is THEIR money.  It was their money the day they got married.  The endowed each other and pooled their wealth.

    Shareholders don't create or build a company either, but the law still says they get paid dividends according to their shareholding.

  • If he’s the one ending the marriage, and after a google search it seems like he is, after having a affairs which add to her public humiliation. Why shouldn’t he pay a little more? Half is going over. But if she’s the one who wanted to stay... I don’t think she should be punished for it. 


    Also, women don’t say loving exploration..... that’s something I’ve heard men say when they want to be with someone other then their wives. 


    Since this is in the early days we will all have to watch, and see who is right about who is leaving. Then whoever wins gets a part of that 137 billion 🤗

  • The warning signs of Jeff's infidelity were probably seen at the very beginning of his marriage.

    Atheists do not have any real belief systems, so how can they take any marriage vows? How can they be faithful?

    Catholic women who marry atheists are taking a serious risk as their unbelieving husbands may try to convert their wives and/or separate them from their families. In addition, since it is the faith of the husband which determines the faith the children will adopt, it is extremely important that a Catholic woman chooses a Catholic man. The husband is to lead the family spiritually. If the husband does not have the faith, how can he impart the Faith to his children?

    If Jeff's wife married him for the money he could generate due to family wealth, then she is not to be pitied. That is called greed.

    If Jeff's wife married him with the thought of converting him, that usually does not work.

    Personally, I only became engaged to my future husband who was Protestant once he indicated that he sincerely wanted to join the Catholic Church and be baptized by her. He was baptized a month before our marriage.



    Marrying an unbeliever such as a Muslim man is fraught with dangers as he will become radicalized if the wife becomes pregnant with his child.

    I have known Christian men who have married Jєωιѕн women. Rarely will the Jєωιѕн lady convert to Christianity. Instead, the Jєωιѕн family will hound the man to denounce Christ and convert to Judaism, threatening disinheritance, until he ultimately does. It is an ugly scene. If a Jєωιѕн man marries a Christian lady, she will be expected to denounce Christ. Apostasy kills the soul.
    Lord have mercy.

  • I don't think religion has anything to do with it -- there are faithfully married unbelievers and Trad Catholics who regularly cheat on their wives.

    It would be genuinely shocking if Jeff Bezos didn't cheat on his wife. He is one of the richest people to ever live. Amazon has been a multi-billion dollar company for a long time. Someone with his level of money, clout and power is not going to be faithful once the dollars start rolling in. And they have been for 25 years.
