    Half a trillion in equity is so unfathomable in my reality.

    $500,000,000,000

    Let’s say I ask him for 0.001% of his wealth… I would get $5,000,000.

    Now let’s put this into perspective of my reality. If I had $1000 and someone asked me for the same 0.001% of my wealth, I would be handing over $0.01.

    One cent.

    I understand that this wouldn’t be sustainable if I give everyone one cent from my pot of a thousand… but still. Have a trillion dollars makes me sick.
