Since 1 year has


1\text{year}=8760\text{ hours}

Therefore, in 1 year, he/she will earn


13*8760

which is equal to $113,880.

Since employee works 71 years, he/she will earn


71*113880

which is equal to $8,085,480

Now, we must find the ratio between Bezos money and employee's money. It yields,


(143,100,000,000)/(8085480)

which is equal to 17,698.39. This means that the employee will take 17,698 lifes to earn Jeff Bezos money.
