Total assets which is horribly decieving. Just because you own 20 mil in property does not mean you have access to anywhere near 20 mil in funds.

I knew a guy who on paper was worth 100mil but his cashflow was barely keeping him afloat.

Net worth includes everything. All investments, all real estate, all tangibles.

It's only deceiving if you're giving your net worth when someone wants to know how much you make.


And if you had a friend who's net was 100mil but was living check to check, he needs a financial advisor...or a better one at least.
