Is he going to login to etrade to market sell 100 mil of Amazon stock every year? 20% cap gains and then whatever additional tax the gross amount incurs? That will also lower the price.

I’m just saying this is kind of an absurd amount for a mediocre newspaper with ok reach.

The idea that billionaires are not actually billionaires because they cannot possibly sell their shares is not real.
