DAMN, that was a fast fucking divorce,   its been what? 3 months?  holy cow.

 

and she gets $36B to play with and now instantly just became the 24th richest person in the world, just ahead of Michael Dell.

Only 36 billion - would not bang.

I mean the precedent is set, so if she wants out then she keeps 75% and I'd only get $ 9 billion....meh

The way I read the 8-K is that if she sells her shares on the open market, they regain their voting rights. If she sells them any other way, the buyer has to enter into the same agreement with Jeff regarding voting rights (i.e., they have none). I don't understand how this shit works, but #1, is it even possible to sell that huge a chunk on the open market? And #2, why would any institutional investor, etc, be interested in buying that large a stake if it has no voting rights?

Kinda seems like she got taken to the cleaners to me, given what she appeared to be legally entitled to.

lots of tech companies have dual class voting rights. institutional investors hate them but have no choice. theoretically, the non-voting rights shares should be discounted but often not in reality.

you would not sell $36B to the open market. you could sell chunks of millions. but with that large of a stake, many banks will give you loans against your shares so you never really have to sell.

at some point, i imagine she saw all those zero's after the 36 and didn't give a fuck.  her kids are set.  she could give millions to all of her friends and families and still have billions.  why squabble over shit that simply does not matter.

I'm guessing crash has never been through a divorce...

Wonder if the bank made her wait 5 business days?

I didn’t know you could write underneath the line. Going to change my check writing style.

That and selling that many shares in the open market dilutes the market value costing both her and Jeff billions.

With the way they did it, the two of them still control the same amount they did before which matters for estate planning/inheritance and what not.  The kids will eventually get it all or most of it.  She also avoids a long drawn out divorce and she still gets $35B.  Not sure how the payment works but she's managed to liquify her shares without brining them to make and diluting everything.  Not a bad strategy.
