After divorce from the world's richest man: The world's richest woman donated US$5.83 billion

According to reports, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos’ ex-wife Mackenzie Scott donated US$5.83 billion (approximately RMB 37.7 billion) of shares in the past year, ranking first in the US charitable donation list in 2020.

In August 2019, Mackenzie and Bezos signed a divorce agreement and obtained 19.7 million Amazon shares, which is about 37 billion U.S. dollars at the time.

Since then, thanks to the continuous rise of Amazon’s stock price, Mackenzie’s value has also soared, reaching $67.4 billion in September last year, surpassing L'Oréal heir François Meyers, and became the world’s richest woman. There are only 11 men richer than him.

Among them is her ex-husband, the world's first rich man with a net worth of more than US$200 billion.

After divorcing Bezos, Mackenzie became keen on public welfare. Unlike many women who buy, buy, and buy, she started the "donation, donation," model, and constantly donated part of her wealth.
