I was thinking about this today and it seems that wealth isn’t just what you have, it has something to do with where you are, physically, in the world, too, and what the purchasing power of your money is. 100K in India or Mexico is different than it is here. Then again, it may be more pleasant here in some sense.
A straight calc of net-worth just seems inadequate to me. It has to be a combination of cash, assets, debt, purchasing power, freedom/time, and lifestyle.
