She did help with Amazon starting, I don’t think she was a trophy wife who had no effect on Amazon.
Categorically false.
She was literally one of the first employees.
yeah because all of the wealthy bootstrapped themselves and didn't start with a fortune or great privilege
Lots of people start with fortunes and great privilege. Why aren't they all worth $60B? Both you and I are in places of great privilege. Why aren't we billionaires?
That's totally irrelevant. The point is the relatively low number of bootstrapped billionaires. Bezos started with a $250K (equivalent to $450K today) "investment" from his parents yet some criticise Scott for not earning her own fortune.
Jeff Bezos had been running Amazon for a year before his parents invested $250k in it. He did not start with that.
Any rando can get a 250K investment from VCs today, so that is irrelevant.
Who cares if she made it. The question is who gave it off. Let’s not get into discussions on who truly made their fortune vs. being in the right place time with the right idea and mindset.
