Melinda Gates is about to claim the throne as the world's richest woman. Once the divorce settlement is over with her current husband Bill Gates, she will inherit 50% of assets he controls, seemingly he does not have a prenup from his public statements on Twitter, asking for privacy.
The statement was mirrored by Melinda Gates.

People around the world will have an interesting reaction to this, with how much publicity Bill has had lately. It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Bill is still on about cement, vaccines, and China vs US macroeconomics, while Melinda is pursuing Women's Rights as a businesswoman who is the Founder of Pivotal Ventures. It appears to be a good independent direction for her considering the amount of bad press he has been getting from Vaccines.
lol a joint press statement as a break up tweet
a commenter on /biz suggests the divorce is a sham that allows the Gates to dump on the market; buypassing the normal rules about owners selling stock within time limits
