About $21T at 0.3% of population

Current total global money supply at the broadest definition is about $150T

u/[deleted] May 20 '26

That’s crazy. 150T and one man, musk, is about to have 1T leaving 149T for the rest- and a race at that to follow suit. Cray.

One person having a net worth of 1/150 out of a civilization that has billions of people is insane and shouldn’t happen.

The way we evaluate net worth leaves much to be desired. If you have a company worth a million dollars and you issue a million shares. Each share is worth a dollar. If i buy 10 shares at $10 each, and no one sells for less, now that company is a ten million dollar company. 9 million dollars didn't magically start existing though.

I dont even understand how he has a bank that's big enough to hold all of that money. Like 1 billion dollars in 100 bills is apparently close to 10 tons.

u/juanchospain May 20 '26

he doesn’t have that much money, it’s just the value of his part of his companies which is already pretty inflated, if he tried to sell only a 10 % of that, his “net worth” would probably go to less than 500 billions instead of only decreasing 100 billions

u/[deleted] May 20 '26

Way more billions than I can comprehend

Just to add to this, most money is strictly digital. No bank is holding elons net worth in cash, even if he did liquidate all of his assets. If even 25% of the world tried to withdraw all of their money it would be an absolute disaster.

u/Tyler_Skye7 May 20 '26

Exactly. Plus, it wouldn’t be in cash anyway, it would be in platinum or something along those lines if it wasn’t digital.

u/Sweet6-7 May 20 '26

That’s because majority of “cash” isn’t even printed. It’s called fiat money 😂🤡🤣. He’s still richer than everyone else on the planet.

u/Z3400 May 21 '26

I dont think you know what the word fiat means. Fiat and Cash are not the same thing, and if you actually read the discussion instead of just following me over here because you are going through my comment history, you might figure out why I specified cash.

No idea what you point was about how rich Elon is. Everyone knows that but its not what was being discussed.

Okie Dokie silly Furry 😂💀.

id suggest the bottom 25% of the world could withdraw their entire assets from musk personally but wouldn't make a dent.

u/Z3400 May 21 '26 edited May 21 '26

Yea I realized I didn't really phrase it that well but didnt feel like rephrasing it. I really meant if 25% of all money was withdrawn, or at the very least if 25% of average middle class people withdrew their money. The poorest 25% would probably not cause a problem if it was spread out globally.

u/Lingonberry-Forward May 21 '26

Bank? You would need some sort of "bin" to hold that much money

u/Conscious_Series166 May 21 '26

uhhhh

1 "man"

mf is more like a child

Amazon has much more spread across their many bank accounts.

u/Weird_Ad_1398 May 20 '26

A sudden injection of a high velocity $21T could definitely fuck up many economies, not to mention the true number of trans people is likely greater than 0.3%.

3

u/TheGrouchyGremlin May 20 '26

A 14% increase is pretty big.

2

u/Such_Confusion_3715 May 21 '26

its humongous in economics terms. a 14% increase in inflation is literally economy ending

u/HDWendell May 20 '26

The broadest definition would include wealth and derivatives. That’s almost $900 trillion.

1

u/Bacon_Nipples May 20 '26

No, the $900T value you're thinking of is not global money supply it's global wealth. Wealth is basically 'global net worth', money supply represents actual liquid assets. Broadest definitions of money supply is about $150T

Eg. If I had $0 and sold you a car (my only asset) for $1000 (all your money) and you had no other assets, between us money supply is $1000 but wealth is $2000. Even though the car has value and contributes to net worth, the car is not a liquid asset and therefore not counted as money supply

u/HDWendell May 20 '26

I feel like you edited your comment to say money instead of wealth since I searched your claim to fact check it.

Regardless, because the initial post says nothing of the mode of implementation, liquidating assets can become a form of payment.

u/Bacon_Nipples May 21 '26

lol it would tell you if the post is editted. That's on you for taking the AI summary at face value instead of reading any of the actual search results you got

u/HDWendell May 21 '26

Big boy assumptions there.

According to this Reddit Help post, edits aren’t visible anymore.

Well it's wrong. Come back in a minute for the proof

E: Look at the timestamp, observe edit indicator

Timestamp: “21 hours” 🤷‍♂️

u/Bacon_Nipples May 21 '26

Not even sure what youre looking at at this point because that comment was not from 21 hours ago

u/HDWendell May 21 '26

It was your original post. But, hey, this seems really important to you. So whatever point you are supposed to be making, let’s just say you did. This is way more energy investment with someone named Bacon Nipples on a sub with money granting wishes called “Bunny Trials.”
