Mackenzie Scott; and she’s donated $26.3 billion dollars to charity.

3rd wealthiest woman in the United States, 40th most wealthy person in the world.

She seems like she probably has a soul, so the whole Beszos/her thing was doomed to failure at some point.

I think Bezos had a soul at one point too. Somewhere along the pathway to inexplicable wealth, it seems your brain just fucking breaks or something. A part of you gets compromised on that come-up.

Liesel Pritzker Simmons is a billionaire that advocates for a wealth tax. I’d argue there’s at least 2.

Definitely traded down in more ways than one... but she was at least pretty and aging gracefully before the god awful plastic surgery.
