But if you made just 3% interest on your money as you deposit $1,825,000 annually, over 532 years, you'd end up having $410 trillion dollars or more than 2,000 bezos.

Same. There's no gold standard, money is a social construct.

I wonder if the people who think like this, also assume "if bezos had less money, I'd have more".
