Mackenzie
In August 2020, Forbes released the world's richest woman list, the first place Mackenzie Bezos, she divorced the world's richest man, Amazon founder Bezos, because of the wealth she shared became the world's richest woman.
Reading this, everyone must not think that Mackenzie is a lucky woman who "does a good job than marries"! She was a proper "other person's child."
01
Born into a middle-class family in 1970, Mackenzie wrote his own books at the age of 6, showing an astonishing talent for creation.
After attending school, she became a standard academic bully, entered Princeton University, one of the eight major Ivy League schools in the United States, studied under Nobel Prize-winning writer Tony Morrison, and was named "the best student in her teaching career" by Morrison.
In 1992, after graduating from Princeton University, she applied for a job at D.E. Shaw, a hedge fund on Wall Street, interviewed by Bezos, 28, the company's vice president.
Less than 3 months after joining the company, MacKenzie took the initiative to date Bezos, and the two were engaged within 3 months and married within 6 months.
Many people think that this is a "heart machine girl fishing for the golden turtle" bridge section, in fact, D.E. Shaw is now one of the most prestigious hedge funds on Wall Street, but it was only founded at the end of 1988, only 6 people in the early days, in 1992 when MacKenzie was hired, it had neither performance nor capital, close to the bag company, otherwise, how could the vice president personally interview?
As a high-achieving student in the Ivy League school, Mackenzie's marriage, Bezos was definitely not a high climb at that time.
Bezos's early days
In the second year of their marriage, Bezos said he planned to start his own business, with the goal of selling books online. MacKenzie immediately agreed, and the couple rented a one-bedroom house in Seattle, the precursor to Amazon.
That is to say, Amazon, the world's largest Internet company in the world, was originally a mom-and-pop store, and MacKenzie packed goods with ordinary employees, while also responsible for managing the accounts.
In 1997, Amazon went public, and MacKenzie contributed to it. Unlike other self-made couples in the world, MacKenzie has never preached such stories to the outside world, so that people don't know that in the legal sense, MacKenzie is actually one of the co-founders of Amazon.

While helping her husband start a business and taking care of his four children, MacKenzie wrote two novels, one of which won the American Book Award and was named "a talented female writer delayed by Amazon" by the literary community.
In 2017, Amazon's stock price soared, Bezos became the world's richest man, MacKenzie still wears the most ordinary T-shirts and jeans, and never mixes with celebrity circles.
In 2019, because Bezos cheated on the two announced divorce, according to local law, MacKenzie himself can share half of the property, just when people think that it is about to usher in the longest and most tragic "divorce property battle" in history, MacKenzie only needs 1/4 (in fact, this is only a distribution as a co-founder).
While that was enough to get her into the rich list, she then pledged to donate at least half of her fortune to charity. She said: "I will continue to hold on until my safe is empty."
MacKenzie is indeed different, she is different from the same list of Suzanne Kraten, Yang Huiyan, Jacqueline Mars, Julia Koch and other rich women, these people are either inheriting family wealth, or sharing the shares of their husbands, etc., really can not compete with MacKenzie.
