Jerry is definitely very wealthy

But much of his wealth is probably tied up in owning the Sox and Bulls and not actual cash. He obviously has other real estate ventures. Likewise Ishbia probably has lots of his wealth tied up in other ventures but dudes buying baseball teams today tend to be in a different stratosphere than the guys that purchased them 40+ years ago. I would guess that Ishbia has significantly more ability to plop down the cash for this site and build on it than Jerry does.
