    Is my math wrong? I don’t see how, in your scenario, it would cost him 100 billion. It wouldn’t even cost him 1 billion. 200k (students) x $50k/year x 4 years = $40 million.

    Edit: Ok yeah my math is wrong but still not that wrong. It’s $40 billion. (That’s what I get trying to do the Calc in my head). Still not $100 billion though. He could put 500k kids through school in your scenario for it to cost him 100 billion.

      That’s what I got, too. The person you’re responding to seems to have mixed up orders of magnitude. Like I get it, 400m is still unfathomably wealthy, but he has a thousand times that.
