Precisely, but Bezos doesn't own something that's his, it's something that's everybody's, so definitely not the same.

Not sure what you mean by "it's something that's everybody's".

I think he's implying you can also own part of Amazon by buying shares so it's not just for Bezos.

Bezos owns 11% of Amazon which means over a trillion dollars in value is shared by other people who own pieces of Amazon.
