What's "cash"? A marketable security?

I'm insanely poor by these standards but wealthfront will front me hard cash using my account as collateral with one click i think up to 30%. Super cheap interest rate.

Bezos has way more favorable banking. Even if he was 'only' worth $10-15 billion I bet he could get 2-3 billion in hard cash overnight.

He might not hold a lot of cash, but he doesn't need to he can get it immediately without selling.

Not just that, he could trivially offload 15 billion without price moving at all.

Tons of private equity M&As have happened at much larger valuation.
