Does he actually have all that in his bank account? I thought thats just his worth, not how much worth he actually has on him.

Like if he were to simply announce that hes giving almost all of his money & possessions away then his worth numbers would start plummeting.

From my understanding of the billionaire world & the stock market. Which I have none of.

You realize that's his net worth, right? Most of that "money" is already out in the economy, in the form of his business ventures and other things. He's not sitting on $171B in cash.
