This incorrect idea that there's any trivial way to make a $4 billion purchase is popular because most people don't understand money in those amounts. It's fine if you have a problem with extreme wealth, but if this is how you think of it, you might not be seeing the actual problems.
That and there is only one balance over 100k USD. But there are a lot of people that would consider 100k an almost meaninglessly small amount of money.
It's already $60k. So arguably only 0.00001% of the people in the world can do it already.
I assume the reason you react is that you identify with somebody who could potentially do it (by saving a lot maybe), but couldn't anymore with the new price.
Thinking it's something everybody could do if fit is not realistic.
90% of the population probably doesn't have $10k of assets. So while $10k isn't alot of money, it is out of the ordinary, especially if you are able to store it out of the country.
Why do you think nobody needs more than billion dollars?
I know if I had a billion dollars there are lots of things I'd fund. Why should I not be allowed to do that? If I had a trillion I also have things I'd fund that I couldn't at a billion
Most people don't see the benefit of being able to send $100,000,000 for $2 because most people will never need, or be able, to send $100,000,000 to anyone. Or $1,000,000, or even $10,000.
