   @evan Question is how you define the amount of "wealth". Is it everything that you own or only the amount that you have "at hand"? Means: You can be the owner of a factory that is worth millions in buildings and machines, but you might have got only some 10k on your bank account, because everything above this yozu invest in your company.

     @heluecht I didn't use the term "net worth" since I think a person's worth is not only financial, but the idea of "personal wealth" is about the same. All you own, minus all you owe.

     @heluecht I think for younger people, having $1M means having a giant pile of cash to spend on parties and speed boats, whereas for middle-aged and older people, it feels like owning your own home and having a retirement account.
