Jeff Bezos gave Lauren Sanchez an "absolute monster" costing millions

"The hard part is figuring out how to do it in a levered way. It's not easy. Building Amazon was not easy. It took a lot of hard work, a bunch of very smart teammates, hard-working teammates, and I'm finding — and I think Lauren is finding the same thing — that charity, philanthropy, is very similar."

To this, Lauren said that they make "really great teammates" while working together.
