The greedy character finally has his desired fortune piled under his feet, he couldn't be any more glad. So how does he enjoy this moment? He dives into the pile and gleefully swims around like it was the best swimming pool ever, or rest on it like you would while floating peacefully.
As the page quote demonstrates, pooling together large quantities of small, solid material won't magically give it the properties of a liquid. In fact, diving into a pool of gold coins won't be much different from diving into a giant solid block of gold. But you can't let a little thing like physics get in the way of demonstrating a perfect example of just how wealthy a character can be. The effect can also be achieved (much more realistically) with dollars/bills, which are softer and, when pooled together, much more malleable (though you may run the risk of a few papercuts).
It doesn't have to be actual currency; it could be jewels, treasures, some valuable fluid or pretty much anything the character wants.
Subtrope of Conspicuous Consumption. May overlap with Money Fetish and Sand Is Water. Often a part of an If I Were a Rich Man fantasy.
Not to be confused with Liquid Assets, or with the standard usage of "pooling" funds, that is, raising them among a group of people to be distributed in case of some emergency, or as a prize. See also Dragon Hoard.

In the Hellboy story "Box Full of Evil", one of the people opening the titular box demands from the demon within "Enough gold that if I were to lie down I would find a crown upon my head". He gets it Sort of. The demon tells him that the treasure he seeks is already hidden within a wall of the castle, then possesses his sister and turns him into a monkey, at the end of the story, he's killed by being thrown though a wall, right on top of large pile of money, with a crown falling at his head.

Scrooge McDuck of DuckTales (1987) does this as his main pastime. See the comics section for more information.
DuckTales (2017) continues this trend and even shows Scrooge exploiting it in the first episode using it to sneak behind Glomgold in the Atlantean treasure chamber. The trope is actually deconstructed and justified when Louie sees the money bin for the first time and tries to do it. Scrooge grabs him and tells him that the only reason Scrooge can do it is because he spent years practicing and mastering the skill. Louie on the other hand would probably crack his skull open.
Gladstone Gander, at one point, fills a hot tub with casino chips and does a mocking Scrooge impression.
Even in the original animated series, one time the nephews attempted it and failed miserably, prompting them to all look at each other and go, "How does he do that?"

Scrooge McDuck of the Disney Ducks Comic Universe does this all the time. This originated in the comics, but is probably more widely known because of his animated incarnation in DuckTales (1987). This is such a well-known trait of the character that it's played around with a fair bit. At times in the comics, there are even things that happen (or don't happen) to Scrooge because swimming in coins made his pores covered in metal.
Lampshaded in that Donald Duck and his nephews will occasionally try it, and break their heads on the metal (the first time they saw him do it, they feared for his sanity/health). Scrooge even managed to trick the Beagle Boys into trying this in Only A Poor Old Man.
Also, it only works with money, even for Scrooge. While diving around in his cash-filled train wagons in the second-to-last album of The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, he comes to an abrupt halt on a pile of coals.
In one story, they actually turn the vault into a tourist attraction, with people taking rowboats onto the gold.
Subverted in The Last Lord of Eldorado. After having found a pile of coins on a treasure cruise, Scrooge tries to dive into it. Instead he cracks his head because the coins were fused together after spending hundreds of years on the bottom of the sea.

This is considered standard behavior for dragons in Dungeons & Dragons. One book devoted to them, the Draconomicon, points out how improbable this is considering the volume of the coins and the size of most dragons (even taking into consideration that they are typically 3x as rich as monsters of the same power level). The book even mentions that some dragons will convert their treasure into smaller denominations just to make wallowing in their wealth more practical.

What If? suggests doing this after you magically acquire all the money in the world.
The same entry also lists another problem with trying to do this in real life other than the one Family Guy pointed out: that much cash would violate building codesnote At least New York's by exceeding the maximum pressure on the side of the building.

CollegeHumor: Deconstructed in this parody video, where Scrooge McDuck from DuckTales (1987) accidentally breaks all of his bones after jumping into his pool of money, resulting in him being immediately rushed to the hospital where he then dies. A funeral is held for him, where he is buried with all of his money, and as a result his grandnephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie go crazy over their granduncle's death and end up in prison, their uncle (and Scrooge's nephew) Donald Duck becoming very angry with them and refuses to pay their "duck bail", before finally going bankrupt and committing suicide.

Also, it only works with money, even for Scrooge. While diving around in his cash-filled train wagons in the second-to-last album of The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, he comes to an abrupt halt on a pile of coals.

Deconstructed in Family Guy. Peter jumps into one of these after hitting the lottery and winds up bloody with bones sticking out. As noted in the page quote, it turns out that gold is quite dense, so even though it's malleable, you don't want to jump into a pile of it.

Alluded to in How I Met Your Mother when Marshall jokes with his loan officer about getting the loan in singles so he can fill up a swimming pool and dive through it.
