Interesting idea for a measurement! That amount of money can certainly buy an army, but doesn’t account for equipment, logistics etc. Comparing it directly to military expenditure by states is interesting [1,2]: If spent over a single year it would be 3rd highest expenditure (second is China with 150-228 billion) Could fund a military the same as France or Britain for 3 years Equals the combined spend of Britain France and Germany over 1 year. Could fund Greek or Swiss army for 30 years Or Venezuela for 144 years [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_military_expenditures https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_militar...
