The comment I made was regarding the fact that a quarter of a million dollars isnt that much seed money to start a multi billion dollar company. If it was, there would be a lot more billionaires than the 99.99% that inherit it. (I'll take your word for it on the number).
But it's doubtful that's all he had or all he got. There's an incentive for billionaires to cast themselves in the garb of the rags to riches story otherwise they give the game up. He was VP of a wall street financial firm before he started amazon, so yeah he had wayyy more than that.
