Teddy Schlafer's beat over at Vox is rich people.

So, Teddy, how rich are Bill and Melinda Gates?

So Bill and Melinda Gates are worth about $145 billion, depending on the day, how you calculate it.

That sounds like a lot. That sounds like a

small country. It is a small country. I believe they're now the fourth wealthiest people in the

world. Teddy found out these very rich people were getting divorced because he set up his phone

to ping him every time one of them tweets. And it was funny because all I saw was like the link to an image, which I remember thinking

in that split second was somewhat unusual because Bill and Melinda Gates are fairly

traditional tweeters.

Like they don't do a lot of weird stuff on Twitter.

Their messaging is very kind of practiced.

So the fact that there was a tweet with an image and no text certainly

piqued my curiosity. So I clicked within. I love that you're the Encyclopedia Brown of Bill and

Melinda's Twitter. What were the first questions you asked yourself when you read the announcement?

So first, making sure I was not missing the word like not somewhere.

You know, they are not divorcing.

I think this is how a lot of us responded to the news of Bill and Melinda Gates divorce.

Like, those two? Really?

Bill Gates isn't Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos.

And then that initial shock was followed by a big question.

What's going to happen with all that money?

Tons of private people get divorced and it's none of our business.
