• After meeting at D.E. Shaw, Jeff and MacKenzie Bezos were married in 1993.
• Shortly afterward, the couple relocated to Seattle to found Amazon - MacKenzie was one of the company's first employees.
• Today, Jeff Bezos is worth $90.6 billion, making him the world's richest person.
Jeff Bezos wasn't alone when he made his cross-county road trip to Seattle in 1994. And he wasn't alone when he founded Amazon, now an online retail giant some analysts believe will be the world's first trillion-dollar company.
His wife MacKenzie was there for the whole journey.
In an interview with CBS, she described watching her husband build Amazon up from scratch: "To me watching your spouse, somebody that you love, have an adventure, what is better than that?"
