banks are not stupid… you can’t just open LLC, borrow billion bucks, spend it and then be like “oops, LLC mates, not liable”

You can if you are Meta and are willing to litigate the hell out of it.

“If you are meta” in this case means “if you have a billion dollars already, and a credit rating that you don’t want to destroy.

Nobody is trying to pull one over on a bank here. Pricing the risk of the loan is a bank’s whole business, they’re happy to loan to meta because meta is meta, and they’re a good candidate for a loan.

Do you think any CEOs of gigantic corporations are personally liable for any loans made by the companies they work for? I would be incredibly, incredibly surprised to hear if that's the case.

More like if you are Meta and are viewed as a lucrative business opportunity by the bank.

Then why don't they do it? It's the easiest money they can ever make. Even I can litigate the hell out of it if I get $27B, take the money and close the LLC.
