Would have been funnier if he went with Eagles Desperado.
If smart she will leave her $70bn with Jeff just for the great return.
A comment left at ZH. Could be something to it...

Weird. Posted 2 pics in a row. One disappears. Posted again. Disappeared again.
Are mods fucking with me
This poster is a bit naive then. There are many legal way for him to hedge his investment or exit his position without having to pay tax. Tax is for the poor people. Also, if she did get half the shares, it would remain in shares. There is no way at all they would let her have the shares and be able to dump them / cash out.
^Not allowed to cash out? Buuut what about the "free market?"
Who's this "they" you speak of?
The other share holders of Amazon stock. $70 billion of stock hitting the market or even the inkling of that happening would see the price plummet. Perhaps they they would wait until it hits rock bottom, buy buy buy, and then say "ahh we're staying together" and make a killing?
Bezos would not allow it and it would be contracted in the settlement - no selling stock above X amount on a yearly basis without permission, and bezos given first refusal.

So if one has $140 billion in stock that you are prevented from selling, what is that really worth?
hmm...
splitting ownership into two separate entities (best they divorce on amicable terms) else, could be the makings of a big money hostile takeover attempt...
oh man, just think of the money to be made with options
Get negative interest loans against it, settled when the stock prices increases. Amazon do not do dividends, so its all about cashing in small amounts when the prices rises maintaining growth in holding. The amount she could sell would be capped though. It is highly over priced already - if they paid dividends the price would drop considerably.
wonderful bunch of posts here from the usual crew of ignorant, envious, wrinkled, and pathetic boozed up old sexpats whose shrunken rancid genitals only get attention when their owners pay for the services of flat footed, foul mouthed, bow legged, chubby, garlic breathed tattooed short time whores.
Coming from a pension trapped short order cook.... that really hurts.
Twat
Anyway, what's wrong with a woman getting half?
He's probably much better off than some broke ass Brit who came to Thailand under some grand illusion that Thai women are nice and submissive. Like a good gentlemanly Brit, he builds a house for brothers and parents and gets kicked out when payments stop. After whining a bit on Bangkok expats and Thai Visa he realises he would have been better off staying in UK where he would at least get half.
Now I see why he came out on Wednesday with that Twitter divorce announcement. He wanted to get ahead of the National Enquirer story...

Hmmm...she helped him start Amazon. So they were married before Amazon started.
Bezos' divorce clouds his stake in Amazon

Ms. Bezos, a novelist, wrote “The Testing of Luther Albright: A Novel” and “Traps.” The couple has four teenage children, three boys and one girl. She met Mr. Bezos in the early 1990s when the two worked in finance at investment firm D.E. Shaw. He was one of the first to interview her when she applied there for a job. They married in 1993.
The following year, they drove to Seattle, where Mr. Bezos decided to start his online bookstore venture. He settled on the area because of its pool of high-tech professionals and proximity to one of the world’s biggest book warehouses. While Ms. Bezos drove, Mr. Bezos typed up his business plan on a laptop computer. She was a key member of the Amazon team when it started operations in 1995.
