    Not her own money, money she got from Bezos in their divorce.

    But I still entirely support her usage of it. She seized half of Bezos’ money and is using it for good. We all know Bezos would have just kept hoarding it

      She got it in a divorce that means legally it is her money, she could just cash it out and burn it if she really wanted to lol

        On top of that, she was heavily involved in Amazon from its inception.

        She earned her money just as much as Bezos did.

            I largely agree, especially in the case of Amazon which is notorious for worker rights violations.

            That’s why I described it as “as much as Bezos did” rather than in absolute terms.

              We are on the same page, I just don’t like adding /s.

              Amazon did so much bad shit that I would use all that money to make people forget that I was ever connected to it.

      Yes, her own money.

      That’s not money from Bezos, but rather her splitting out her share, that was always hers. Whatever objection you might have, whatever you think is a solid argument for her not actually earning it, has already been crushed flat by legal precedent.

      Her own money.

      Not her own money, money she got from Bezos in their divorce., just money that’s hers to do with as she pleases.

      If you get money via legal action, it’s your money just as much as any other money.
