    When you buy something for $100 billion dollars, do you wire the money like you would if it were a house?

      Usually, little of it is real money, but is stock and debt instead. But I imagine the cash portion is wired.

      I've never sold a business that large, but with the businesses that I have sold, the payment was in the form of a structured series of wire transfers.
