Amazon founder JeffBezos plans to give away the majority of his $124 billion net worth during his lifetime.
"The hard part is figuring out how to do it in a levered way," he said, implying that even as he gives away his billions, he is still looking to maximize his return. "It's not easy. Building Amazon was not easy. It took a lot of hard work, a bunch of very smart teammates, hard-working teammates, and I'm finding - and I think Lauren is finding the same thing - that charity, philanthropy, is very similar.
Last month, Bezos tweeted a warning to his followers on Twitter, recommending that they "batten down the hatches." Many may be feeling the pinch now, he added, but argued that as an optimist he believes the American Dream "is and will be even more attainable in the future" - projecting that within Bezos' lifetime, space travel could become broadly accessible to the public.Sánchez said the couple make "really great teammates," though she laughed, "We can be kind of boring," Sánchez said. Bezos smiled and replied, "Never boring.
Sánchez told CNN she anticipates venturing into orbit herself sometime in 2023. And while she did not directly address who will be joining her - quickly ruling out Bezos as a crewmate - she said simply: "It'll be a great group of females."Bezos may be adding NFL owner to his resume. CNN recently reported that Bezos and Jay-Z are in talks on a potential joint bid on the Washington Commanders.
