About Jeff Bezos

Jeff Bezos can sell you virtually anything from A-Z, but it seems like he hasn't quite figured out the algorithm for everlasting love. Our space-crazed, book-slinging tycoon found himself on the wrong side of the world's most expensive divorce settlement – and trust us, no amount of Amazon Prime can get you quick shipping on recovered damages to your bank account.

In an unexpected plot twist that not even Alexa could have predicted, MacKenzie Scott parted ways with Mr. Bezos, leaving the billionaire bachelor $38 billion lighter . Cupid must have fallen asleep while shipping Bezos his happily-ever-after; sadly there were no refunds or returns on this order. Some say Bezos won the battle by retaining his top slot among world's richest humans (lopsided scales, but okay), whereas some argue Scott left with a victory worth $38b. Irrespective of the differing opinions, it could be agreed that neither Wall Street, Amazon Web Services, nor the barking canine on his website’s logo could swing this in his favor.

In this expensive love ship (spacE SHip too) affair where Bezos stepped back thinking "Everything Store love-business is not for him", one could only imagine him consolingly whispering to himself "At least I've still got Whole Foods." Word to the wise – make sure you really consider “from A to Z” before embarking on the next romantic venture; exchanges and returns are not as easy as they are on your favorite ecommerce websites, fellas!
