Jeff Bezos would have created Amazon whether he was single or married.
Unless MacKenzie contributed conceptually to the business platform, she doesn't deserve a larger amount than a regular divorce w/child support would deserve. His wife didn't create 137 billion, he did.
Any amount larger than 1 billion is a disgusting joke.
That's a settlement is going to hurt the business too because he will have to sell massive amounts of stocks or give her half his stock. Either way, he loses control of his own business. It could destroy the confidence of his stock owners.

To the last paragraph first - we have no idea how the settlement is structured. Could be smaller #'s and larger in a trust for the kids.
To the other piece, about her having to contribute "conceptually" seems ridiculous. We have no idea how she contributed from as a filter "that idea is dumb", support (coming home to dinner), or even inspiration.
They decided when they got married that they didn't need a pre-nup, and you can't change the rules after the fact just because it suits you.
And I'm not naive. My wife and I both know exactly how much our household is spending, talk about how we're going to spend it on all expenses every month, long term plan for the house, retirement, vacations, college for our kids, and ultimately death.
