The richest
person in the world is getting divorced and it is being told that this can be
half their property. At the moment, nothing is clear and the proceeding of the
divorse is preserved.
The world's richest man
is getting divorced. Amazon's founder Jeff Bezos and his wife Mackenzie Bezos
have announced a divorce. This is known worldwide on Twitter. Both of these
dosors will be processed in Washington, America. This would probably be the
world's first such divorce, with the highest settlement amount. Because Bezos
is still the richest person in the world and his net worth is $ 137 billion
(about Rs 9.5 lakh crore). Jeff Bezos shares 16 percent in Amazon.
Tell you that Bezos and
Mackenzie are together for 25 years, obviously they also contribute to reaching
Amozon. Apart from this, many companies of Jeff Bezos, including a space agency
Blue Origin. America's popular newspaper The Washington Post is also now Jeff
Bezos.
These two are getting
divorced in a US state where the rule is that half of the money and assets
between husband and wife are distributed at the time of divorce. If that
happens, until the end of the divor's processing, the money can be half of the
sum which means that it will be reduced from 137 billion to about 60 billion
dollars. In this case, McKenzie also owes $ 60 billion as a settlement. In this
situation, McKenzie will become the richest woman in the world.
Bezos and Mackenzie have
given information on Divorce Processing. He said in the joint statement,
"As our family and close friends know, we have decided to take the divors
and we will be more like friends. If we knew we would be separated after 25
years, then we would do it again '
Jeff McKenzie's divorce
is happening at a time when the company, about 25 years ago, has become the
world's number-1 company, leaving Amazon and Microsoft behind Apple and
Microsoft. But with this divorce, it is also possible that Jeff Bezos will not
be world's No. 1 wealthier and will slip down to Bill Gates. For a long time,
Bill Gates was the richest person in the world, but recently Jeff Bezos has
followed him. Net worth of Microsoft founder Bill Gates is currently close to $
95 billion.
Jeff and Mackenzie have
four children - three sons and one daughter. Bezos is 54 years old, while
McKenzie is 48 years old. They met during the 90's working in New York based
company D.E Shaw. Shortly after that both Seattle shifted and Bezos introduced
Amazon, which is today the world's number one company. According to reports, if
Jeff Bezos does not take half of the money, McKenzie will still be the world's
most expensive divorce.
According to a report in
USA Today, after the one year of Bejos and McKenzie's marriage, Amazon started,
on this ground, McGenzie could ask for half of the sum of Bezos's money. It is
also said in the report that apart from Amazon, apart from Bezos's property, it
will also be split in half.
