She deserves it because... SHE DESERVES IT!

I'm not saying she deserves nothing, because she did give up things so Jeff could succeed, but 50% is way too high. Maybe like 20%, because the truth is that a lot of Jeff's money goes into the company and none of the money she's getting will go into it. It's not fair for her to get just as much as him who built and led the company to success

So wrong... Females feel entitled to everything.

This is why gold digging exists, its promoted as a genuine strategy, no, an entitlement

The trouble is that when the genders are reversed, it's "not so much".

Jeff Bezos' divorce should be a warning to all men.

Trying to justify that she has earned half of his fortune is absurd.

But this is a tough one for me. On one hand, he cheated and I wouldn't expect her to have to stay in the marriage after that. So part of me says infidelity should be taken into account in divorce settlements. If she had cheated, I would prefer she get almost nothing.

But then another part of me says, "What do you do if you're unhappy?". He might have been unhappy with the marriage for years, but filing for divorce would have cost him half, so I kind of understand taking your chances by cheating.

Jilly is insane. Just let us get that out of the way here at the beginning, before I say anything else. Jilly is insane.

Moving on....

What divorces like these show us is how little we value the often invisible and unpaid labor that so many women do to enable their husbands to build wealth and find professional success.

Jilly... do you really think this woman's vagina built Amazon? Do you really, honestly believe that? I don't think you do.

You're a Marxist, are you not? You believe that capitalism is evil and exploitative, yes? Yes. Alas, now you are rationalizing the transfer of massive capital-- filthy exploitative theft from the proletariat-- into someone's already super-wealthy hands. Why? Because that filthy capitalist happens to have the same sex organs as you do. Unthinking gender tribalism based upon gonads is what you are doing here. Now just you think about that.

No, as stupid and deluded as you are, I don't think even you believe in the righteousness of this. Down in the bone-ignorant depths of your rotten grasping opportunistic victim-mentality-addled feminist soul, I don't truly believe that you believe many of the words that you are writing in this screed. I can see through this facade, and you know that someone else out there can possibly see through this facade as well.

You're shilling for ill-gotten wealth now. Nakedly. That's what you're doing. And I suspect, in the back of your twisted olive-sized brain, you are fully aware of what a venal cynic you are now. You are having some trouble justifying this to yourself, I can tell.

And for what? You think you can get invited to fancy dinners at this woman's mansion if you come out in full-throated support of her? Is that what you're after now?

I have no other words for you.

Interesting that he looks like a Bond villain and his new fluff looks like a Bond girl.

Not saying I agree with a 50/50 split but for a smart man he should’ve thought about that when he married her. I’m sure everyone heard the horrors of a divorce growing up and through their young adult life.

I would assume the real question is does she get half of his money, and assets? Which would not include Amazon as a Corporation. Amazon is a corporation and not funded by him/them, it makes it's own money from which he gains a salary and or profit from investment. I've always wonder how this is supposed to work. ??? Any business majors give me some proper insight on this?

'Their' money is from under paying employees so little that welfare keeps workers alive. 'Their' money should have been put into the paychecks. Neither he nor she should have the money in the first place.

She really doesn't deserve it, she haven't worked hard for that money.
