        Yes cause everyone has 40k leaving around, you are probably rich too if you think that’s not a big deal. In my country you are lucky to make that in a year. Let me make it even more simple for you to understand, I make 3k a month about 36k a year and I’m way above average for my country! With 40k here you can get a one bedroom apartment! Either way I’m pretty much sure that guy is a drug dealer cause most people have it in their bank account and not as physical money!

        Edit: Just so you have a little more context, minimum wage is about 400$/month and the average salary is 1k/month.

        The funny part is, shit costs here way more then in America or whatever because we have EU shit taxes!

    Idk how much, liquidness musk has, probably not Bezos like 6B+ cash stuffs… but it would be hilarious if he demanded like 10B. How long would the print job take? How does that even work?

      Well he’d have to special order from his bank. The treasury isnt going to print money just for him. There’s about 1,846 Billion worth of $100s in circulation. So 10B is ~0.54%. That’s probably enough to cause some local shortages but not enough to cause “real” issues. If he liquidated and cashed his entire 200B Forbes valuation then that’s 10.8% of circulating 100s and there may be a mild nationwide shortage.
