Do you know that very wealthy men don’t focus on enjoying life. Although they enjoyed life but they enjoy the fame that comes later more.

I came to a conclusion that the earlier a man start to enjoy life the less greatness he will achieve in life.
You might be right. They shun too much enjoyment and pursue impact making!

Elon Musk and people like him can borrow billions of dollars using his stocks and shares as collateral if needed, so what does he need to be stacking physical cash in a bank for. This kind of comment always comes up and I have seen a couple already anytime there is a story like this because our idea of wealth in this part of the world comes from stacking physical cash under your bed or in a GP tank or bank vault.

Nobody becomes a $billionare by storing up paper money. Someone that can borrow $44 billion to buy Twitter and people here not you will be saying his wealth is not real because it's not cash in a bank vault lol, people don't understand how wealth works at that level.
The poor and the rich don’t see money same way. For the wealthy money is a means to end, while the poor sees it as the end to a means.

Imagine someone saying it’s not in cash. Lol.

Nothing like overblown because the BANKS will be willing to lend him more than this his networth in CASH!

You are all Ignorant of how these things work (which is why you're nor rich! grin) How can Musk have $20 billion in cash?! He likely doesn't have ANY cash. Everything he buys is on credit. Rich folks have credit cards, or borrow from the banks when they need large amounts. Everything is on credit!
Usual Nigerian arrogance on display. Billionaires come in different flavors, some prefer to buy stuff with debt others prefer to use their hard cash and keep off debt.

So Bill Gates that keeps cold hard cash and is a seasoned Forbes billionaire nor rich abi. He strongly prefers to have solid cash reserve and dislikes unnecessary debts being accrued to him.

Elon Musk is not everyone's model on how a billionaire is to behave, regardless of his wealth. Comprehend that and tone down the arrogance.

Ndi intellectual, cho cho cho and insulting others as if you are even worth up to $2M USD in assets and cash.

Think bigger my bro.
Mr man go and sit down and stop deceiving yourself

I'm sure you can't think bigger than me when it comes to thinking, if only you know what it takes attain such wealth you won't say that.

To attain such wealth you must be linked to past generational wealth, you can only start it for your offspring to carry on

You are speaking like you have sense and I agree with you boss.
That doesn't invalidate what i said. It simply means, how much can he touch right now on his own and buy something without credits or loan. That accessible money he can touch now or any time is what I'm talking about.
If he wants to buy a new phone, there's an accessible fund he can take money from and get a phone without credit or loan. That cash is what we talking about. For the rest you said, yes we know how it works.

I am sure he has a couple of millions of dollars in a bank account for those kind of purchases without using credit, my point is billionaires on that Musk, Bezos etc level don't keep too much cash around because they see it as something that doesn't make good financial sense to do that.

And i wasn't referring to physical cash. I said liquid cash which can be physical or electronic. Why will i think he'll keep 20 billion physical cash in a bunker in his house? So we saying same thing but didn't understand each other

I doubt if this guy can make it this far if in South Africa. An immigrant pulling this kind of stunt shows the US is indeed a land of opportunities. In the US, only U can limit what U can become, the environment is not a factor.
