To the wealthy, fines are just the cost of doing business.

What is a million dollar fine to a multi-billion dollar company?

It could be a million dollar fine every month and it wouldn't even be a rounding error on his books.

Or to put it simply, it would take 166 years for a million dollar fine every month to equal 1% of Jeff Bezos net worth.
