At the height of       his wealth, Bezos was worth $214 billion thanks to Amazon’s stock, which       was trading at a record level of nearly $186 per share during the       coronavirus pandemic.              Bezos, who stepped down as CEO of the company he founded in July 2021,       owns a 10% stake in the Seattle-based e-commerce giant.              He has used his vast fortune to fund the privately owned rocket company       Blue Origin.              Bezos’ successor as CEO, Andy Jassy, has his hands full steering the       company through an inhospitable economic environment that has eaten into       profits of Amazon as well as other blue-chip tech giants like Meta and       Google.              Amazon on Thursday projected that its revenues in the final quarter of       this year would range between $140 billion and $148 billion — which is far       below analyst estimates of $155.15 billion.              The company reported third quarter revenue of $127.10 billion, which is up       15% year over year, but it missed Wall Street estimates of $127.46       billion.              A 21% drop in the stock price translates into a loss of $23 billion from       Bezos’ net worth.       Amazon Web Services, the cloud computing division that was long thought to       be the engine of the company’s meteoric growth, reported a 27.5% increase       in revenue for the quarter — the slowest pace of growth since 2014.              Bezos isn’t the only mogul whose wealth has dipped over the course of the       past year.              Mark Zuckerberg, who made a fortune after co-founding the social network       Facebook, has seen his net worth plunge from a record high of $142 billion       a year ago to just $36.7 billion.              Zuckerberg, who just two years ago was ranked third in overall wealth       behind Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, now finds himself at No. 29 on the list       of richest people, according to Forbes.                     --       "LOCKDOWN", left-wing COVID fearmongering. 95% of COVID infections       recover with no after effects.              No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.       Officially made Nancy Pelosi a two-time impeachment loser.              Donald J.
