Within a few weeks, Bezos, the American billionaire, quickly cashed out more than 60 billion yuan of Amazon shares, which caused a shock in the market. At present, Bezos's shareholding in Amazon is less than 10%, and he has been cashing out Amazon's shares in the past few years.
In fact, Bezos** is not because Amazon is not doing well. At present, Amazon's profitability is quite amazing, with a profit of more than $30 billion last year, and the company's market value is also as high as more than $1 trillion, which is also one of the top five companies in the world.
So why is Amazon developing so well, and Bezos taking more than a few years of Amazon**? Because Bezos was born in 1964, he is already 60 years old, and there are still so many things to do for him, and these things need money.
The first thing is naturally to enjoy life, Bezos wants to buy a mansion, an island, a yacht, etc., and naturally needs a lot of money. Especially after being with his fiancée Sanchez, there are more places to spend money. After all, Sanchez is a woman who is very good at making.
The second thing is that Bezos also has his own dream, which is to conquer space. These world's top tycoons are no longer satisfied with the earth.
Their eyes are now on outer space. Musk and Bezos are both developing their own rocket companies. Bezos had already invested $1 billion a year in Blue Origin a few years ago to support the company's development of its own rockets. Two years ago, Bezos and the other travelers had already gone into space on Blue Origin rockets.
At present, the market value of Bezos's shares is still as high as more than 100 billion US dollars, and counting other assets, Bezos's net worth is as high as 200 billion US dollars, second only to Musk, and he is also the second richest person in the world.
In fact, if it weren't for Bezos's divorce and a lot of assets to his ex-wife Mackenzie, he would still be the richest man in the world. A few years ago, Bezos chose to divorce his wife, Mackenzie, because he got involved with his friend's wife, Sanchez.
Mackenzie and Bezos have been married for more than 20 years, and the two got married before Bezos started a business. After getting married, the two had three children and adopted a Chinese orphan. At the time of the divorce, Bezos gave a quarter of his assets to Mackenzie.
Although Bezos did not split the score, Mackenzie did not continue to ask Bezos to break up, and she also gave Bezos dignity. At that time, Bezos's net worth was about $200 billion, and he gave $50 billion to Mackenzie. The $50 billion is also equivalent to hundreds of billions of yuan.
If Bezos hadn't broken up, he would still be the richest man in the world. After Mackenzie got this wealth, she chose to donate it all instead of for personal enjoyment.
In fact, in addition to sharing part of the assets to his ex-wife, Bezos also gave about 5% of Amazon's shares to his stepfather and siblings. These are worth tens of billions of dollars.
In fact, many people don't know that Bezos was abandoned by his biological father when he was 1 year old. After that, Bezos lived with his mother and his stepfather. Bezos has a very good relationship with his stepfather. Bezos's start-up was also funded by his stepfather.
In fact, Bezos and other siblings are half-siblings, but their relationship is still very good, even if Bezos becomes the richest man in the world, he still has a very good relationship with his sisters.
Bezos also gave them a lot of assets, making them billionaires too. If Bezos hadn't split up, then he would probably still be above Musk in terms of wealth. It's just that Bezos is also a complicated person, although he is so good to his sisters and stepfather, he doesn't recognize his biological father.
A few years ago, a reporter found Bezos' biological father. He was working as a repairman in a small town in the United States. After Bezos separated from his father, the two never saw each other again. The father didn't know that Bezos, the richest man in the world, was his son.
When the reporter told him the news, the old man only put forward one demand, that is, he hoped that his son would come to see him. However, Bezos did not go in the end, because it was his father who abandoned their mother and son, and his father did not come to him for many years afterward.
Some people think Bezos is too ruthless, and many people think that Bezos is doing the right thing. Seeing Bezos, I can only say that human nature is really complicated, and it is difficult for us to have a good person or a bad person to describe a certain person.
