How does owning something turn into hundreds of billions of dollars? I own things too, they don't turn into hundreds of billions

You need to own stuff that others value

I'm sorry to ask such elementary questions, but why do others value it?

It's not an elementary question.

Best I can guess is: plenty of people, plenty of reasons. Which is a stupid answer.

What about their concerns? Are their concerns not a problem?
