No you do NOT -- anybody who thinks that way clearly has never done a short in his life or he wasn't paying attention to what happens in his account.

Shorts get the money UP FRONT -- that's why it's called a "short" -- you already got the cash but you are "short" (owe) shares.

A wet dream for shorts is always a stock going to zero and cease trading forever -- then the short "never covers" and just keeps all of the cash.
