    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.
