and liquid cash on hand are 2 entirely different things.
For instance, if you car is "worth" 50 grand, but first you have to sell it. And even then, you probably will never get what it's "worth".
Thats just one point. Much of it may also be tied up in debt obligation, etc.
I seriously doubt Trump has 2.5 billion in his checking account. Probably closer to 1% of that in reality. But who knows. Everyone on the planet is either prosecuting or suing him, so I'd bet the cash is running low at this point.
