Source of wealth?

Some sources claim he purchased $2B in company stock. Where did he get this money from? The "Career" section is hard to read when it leaves out how he became a billionaire!

You can become a billionaire by owning stock, but he would need to have sold stock before. 00:39, 3 October 2023 (UTC) DenverCoder9 (talk) 00:39, 3 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
