Ah, you've stumbled upon one of the deeper threads of DS9, my friend.
Did you ever wonder why Rom wanted to change Ferengi society so dramatically? Why he wanted to steer them away from free enterprise and towards a stronger central authority?
Why, because Rom is corrupt, of course. He's a true Ferengi, far more devious than Quark. Totally unassuming and insidious, Rom is DS9's Emperor Palpatine like figure. He works from the shadows, always underestimated. Only the Grand Nagus recognized him for what he was, one genius to another, and that no one else could be worthy of being his successor.
Rom plays a deeper game.
How did he get those 5,000 bars, you ask? Why, through corruption, of course! And nobody had a clue, not even his own family.
