102 MiLLION dollars... sounds like a lot. It is a lot to you and me.

Today ( right this minute ) Jeff Bezos is worth 245 Billion USD.

102,000,000 / 245,000,000,000 is .04 PERCENT of his net worth.

I am doing OK... upper middle class job, great stock options in a hot company... paid out in nice big fat quarterly share deposits in my 401K.

Doing really well, financially. I mean I support my daughter, my niece, and my sister ( to various degrees of complete financial support ), plus my girlfriend.

the equivalent of my net worth would be donating $94 dollars.

Their $102 million dollars ( after taxes and cash payment of at least 400 to 500 million dollar lotto win )... is the same to them as an OK steak dinner is to me and my girlfriend. $94 usd.
