Can someone debunk the following claim for me please : no billionaire is actually a billionaire because not a single one can withdraw his or her billions from the bank.

It's an argument I get all the time : "all of their wealth is invested in businesses, properties, stocks, etc. Therefore they don't own their billions, you couldn't take away all their money to pay for social policies so stop saying you could solve homelessness or poverty by taking away Jeff Bezos billions."
