Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez net worth: How much is the billionaire couple worth together?
Source: X Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez have arrived in Venice to celebrate what many are calling the most extravagant wedding of the year — but beyond the glitz, the three-day affair offers a rare peek into the staggering personal fortunes of the couple at its center. From June 24 to 26, about 200 handpicked guests will gather across Venice's most elite venues, including the Belmond Hotel Cipriani, the St. Regis, and Bezos's $500 million superyacht, Koru. Lavish though it may be, this event is just one manifestation of the couple's vast wealth — a wealth that stretches far beyond wedding budgets and designer gowns. Jeff Bezos: A $227 billion empire According to Forbes, Jeff Bezos is currently worth an estimated $227 billion, making him one of the wealthiest individuals alive. He founded Amazon in 1994 out of his garage, and over the decades, grew it into a global e-commerce and tech behemoth. Even after stepping down as CEO in 2021, Bezos retains substantial Amazon stock, which forms the bulk of his fortune. Source: X But his investments stretch far beyond retail. He owns The Washington Post, aerospace company Blue Origin, and has committed $10 billion to environmental causes through the Bezos Earth Fund. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trending in in 2025: Local network access control [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo His real estate holdings alone are valued in the hundreds of millions. Properties include a sprawling estate in Washington, D.C., several New York penthouses, and a Beverly Hills compound that cost over $165 million. Then there's Koru — the $500 million, 417-foot megayacht featuring a wooden exterior, a helipad, and even its own support vessel. According to Bloomberg, the yacht alone requires a crew of over 40 and costs tens of millions annually to maintain. Lauren Sánchez: Self-made millionaire with a powerful career portfolio While Bezos's wealth commands headlines, Lauren Sánchez has quietly built a powerful empire of her own. As per Celebrity Net Worth, Sánchez is worth an estimated $30 million. A former Emmy-winning TV anchor, she gained prominence through shows like Good Day LA and Extra. She also guest-hosted The View and worked as a media personality for over two decades. But Sánchez is more than a broadcaster — she's an entrepreneur and a licensed helicopter pilot. She founded Black Ops Aviation, the first female-owned aerial film company, which has worked with high-end clients like Netflix, Sony, and major Hollywood productions, including Dunkirk. She's also a children's book author; her debut, The Fly Who Flew to Space, became a New York Times bestseller. Source: X Sánchez's real estate portfolio includes an $11 million Beverly Hills mansion she once shared with her ex-husband,Patrick Whitesell, plus a $4.5 million adjoining property they acquired to expand their lot. In 2021, she and Bezos jointly purchased a $78 million beachfront estate in Maui, Hawaii — a 14-acre compound with a private beach, two houses, and a 700-square-foot pool. Pre-nup talks? Though the couple often makes headlines for their luxurious vacations and affectionate public appearances, sources speculate that financial planning has been a key component of their relationship. Bezos did not have a prenuptial agreement with MacKenzie Scott when they married in 1993—long before Amazon became a tech titan. Their divorce in 2019 resulted in Scott receiving a 4% stake in Amazon, valued at approximately $36 billion at the time. With both Bezos and Sánchez having been previously married, and both managing substantial personal wealth, their approach this time signals a more cautious and calculated path to 'happily ever after.'

Pune Inc: How a climate activist became a solutionist, founded startup helping you go green
A Pune startup is focusing on sustainability solutions for waste management and water conservation, particularly in Ladakh, where changing snowfall patterns and tourism have increased water scarcity and waste problems. ExploreiT, founded by Shivam Singh, is working on water conservation through innovative waterless toilets and waste management in Ladakh. 'The snowfall pattern in Ladakh has changed and the region suffers from low groundwater. Due to excessive tourism, they have shifted from traditional toilets to modern toilets, which waste a lot of water. Waste is the second-biggest problem in Ladakh because the temperature doesn't allow it to disintegrate or compost,' says Singh, a management graduate from the Symbiosis Centre for Management Studies (SCMS), Pune, with an MBA from XLRI, Jamshedpur. 'It was while completing a project on climate change at SCMS that my interest shifted towards sustainability,' he says. Soon, he would enter an activist mode, visiting schools and colleges to talk to students about climate change. Singh realised that nobody– students or corporates – was in any doubt about anthropogenic global warming and its implication for the planet, 'but the action was still missing'. 'Then, it got into my head that we need to build a sustainability aggregator. The company aimed to provide all the necessary services under one roof. And, that too, at an affordable and effective cost,' says Singh, who is the CEO. By 2023, ExploreiT had become an Amazon for sustainability services. Naman Maheshwari, a chartered accountant, joined as director, strategy and finance. Sathya Natrajan, CEO of the Climate Troopers Foundation, the non-profit wing of ExploreiT, empowers individuals as climate warriors through innovative solutions that draw from his experience in product development, customer success and tech support. India aims to reach net zero by 2070, but according to the Climate Action Tracker, its performance as of September 2024 (the latest available data) was 'highly insufficient'. Startups, such as ExploreiT, have the potential to make a difference, especially with AI-led innovations coming into the sustainability sector. 'We see huge scope all across India, the Middle East, Europe and South Asia,' says Singh. Solution searching through innovations ExploreiT's menu covers services such as reviewing an organisation's environmental standard based on its practices in energy, water, waste, and emissions management, as well as compliance, among others. 'This assessment helps identify opportunities for improving sustainability and reducing the organisation's environmental impact. Since most companies are moving towards Net Zero, they are interested in improvements. Companies also have CSR funds and we guide them through projects like converting a school into a climate-resilient building using eco paint and reflectors,' says Singh. ExploreiT professionals have set up vertical forests and butterfly gardens; electric vehicle infrastructure in the form of bikes, charging stations and battery setups; and building solutions to check urban heat. They install solar panels on campuses and set up resource recycling centres that focus on collecting waste from parks and colleges, among other critical spaces, and converting these into resources using innovations. 'Our data suggests that with a third or half the budget, we can get thrice the impact. Pune has lots of problems, like water, traffic and air pollution. We are working to come up with a solution. With ExploreiT, our journey has shifted from activism to project execution or finding a solution,' says Singh, adding that within the office, they consider themselves solutionists. A challenge for companies such as ExploreiT is a mix of concern and ignorance among people that is best demonstrated during the hectic plantation drives that surround World Environment Day. Six months later, few of the saplings have survived. In most cases, the plants are neither native nor suitable for the environment. ExploreiT is avoiding the pitfall by being mentored by two eminent experts, Dr Erach Bharucha and Dr Gurudas Nulkar. One of their successes can be seen in Camp, where 721 saplings have survived for nine to 10 months. 'I'm pretty sure that there will be some attrition, but I'm also confident that defence lands are going to give us the best results,' says Singh. Another successful project was a plantation in Yerwada's open prison. 'The rationale is to bring back the Western Ghats to Pune and avoid the ornamental plants which do not belong here,' he adds. Young people are increasingly expressing interest in working to save the planet. 'This is a great job, but I think the parental mindset to accept someone venturing out into the green sector is also very important. I come from a joint family, so there was no pressure on me. But this sector is not traditional, so parents need to have a mindset to take risks,' he says. Dipanita Nath is interested in the climate crisis and sustainability. She has written extensively on social trends, heritage, theatre and startups. She has worked with major news organizations such as Hindustan Times, The Times of India and Mint. ... Read More
