Bezos could burn this amount every year for 2,500 years before exhausting his current wealth.

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.

What is your point? I could burn $400 in my fireplace every year for 2,500 years before exhausting my current wealth. That doesn't mean it's not stupid.
