Crazy Money Day – Bezos Divorce Settlement

It’s Crazy Money Day!

Amazon founder and CEO, Jeff Bezos, divorced his wife after 25 years of marriage. She received stock valued at $37 billion in January. They’ve got a parenting plan for their 4 children and she intends to donate half of her fortune to philanthropy.

But for most people, divorce can be financially devastating. It’s estimated that women’s household income falls by 41%, on average, in divorce cases. Research indicates that married people experience less poverty and more prosperity than any other living arrangement, including being single or living together, and if you are divorced, lean on the Lord, find a wise mentor, and live by God’s financial principles.
