Ok, this annoys me. Bezos’s wealth is mostly tied up in his Amazon stock. It’s not like he’s got a Scrooge McDuck vault full of $156b worth of c-notes. He can’t actually spend much of it either - if he sells a significant amount of Amazon stock, he has to report it to the SEC, and that information becomes public and could result in Amazon stock prices falling. And Amazon doesn’t issue dividends, so he’s not even gaining income that way either. He’s basically trapped by his own success.
