$1.7 trillion or 2* the holdings at Fort Knox? All the Royal Houses of the Arab Gulf can't even have that much money liquid, even with 365 days' heads up. And, no: don't do a "trust me bro," here. At their peak, ARAMCO made $161b in profits in 1 year - and the bulk of that goes towards the general pop. in the form of subsidies, etc. Simply, $1.7 trillion doesn't exist anywhere in such liquid form. If you claim there are hundreds of stealth billionaires with $1-$20b in cash & assets, I'll readily believe that: African kleptocrats' kids, Middle East royalty, European heirs with a low profile, Russian oligarchs, etc. But, not $100b. Or a trillion. That's an insane amount of money, larger than the GDP of like 80% of the world's countries.
