The $250 Million Jeff Bezos Spent For The Washington Post Is Less Than 1% Of His Net Worth

As Bloomberg News reporter Michael Moore pointed out in a tweet, the purchase price is less than 1% of Bezos' net worth, according to Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

Bezos is No. 15 on that list of 100 billionaires, worth $28.2 billion.

Just to give you some idea on how little this is (from a billionaire's point of view), Bezos spent a smaller percentage of his net worth on the Washington Post than Sean Parker spent on his wedding, tweeted Splitsider's Adam Frucci.

Parker is worth $2.1 billion, according to Celebrity Net Worth and spent $10 million on his wedding. Plus, he was fined another $2.5 million for building sets for the extravagant wedding in an ecologically sensitive redwood forest without obtaining the proper permission.
