"Jeff Bezos and his wife MacKenzie are divorcing after 25 years of marriage, the Amazon CEO and Washington Post owner has announced, potentially leading to the costliest divorce settlement in history with $137 billion at stake."
The richest man in the world, currently worth about $137 billion, according to Bloomberg, made the divorce announcement on Wednesday on his Twitter.
[...]The split could lead [to] the costliest divorce is[sic] history, even if the couple doesn’t divide the money equally. There are no reports indicating the couple has a prenuptial agreement, meaning the wealth accumulated during their marriage would have to be split evenly.

> Or is this an attack on marriage, and religious conservatives?
He should decide to be a woman, just to piss off the ultra-conservative people who couldn't stand the idea that the richest person in the word would be a liberal trans girl.

While I was going for, and got modded, "funny", I'd like to take the opportunity you offer to reaffirm my shameless intention to keep spewing hate, at any time, in any context, at any person properly labelled "ultra-conservative".
Except maybe if they apply that label to their personal assets management. But any religion, ethnic, or political group is fair game.

Ah yes, the "be civil" request from racists andthe hatefully devout. It gets tiresome tip toeing around such delicate sensibilities, I mean we wouldn't want to offend anyone right??
