Codie Sanchez recalls meeting Jeff Bezos at a summit. He said he married Mackenzie because she could break him out of the third world prison. On parenting, he told her: I'd rather a kid have four fingers on one hand and no common sense.
I met Jeff Bezos really briefly at Summit, like a million years ago, and he was still married to Mackenzie. And there are two things I loved about what he said. The reason that he was married to Mackenzie was because he wanted to be with somebody who could break him out of the third world prison. I thought that was an incredible quote. The second thing he said about her was I knew she was the one because our kids were out somewhere. They were learning woodworking or something with a knife, something with tools. He was like, aren't you nervous about the kids doing X, Y and Z? And she's like, I'd rather kid have four fingers on one hand and no common sense.
He wouldn't give you the dream if he didn't believe you had what it takes. You have what it takes.
