Wealth
Wealth is the abundance of valuable, transferable assets — such as cash, real estate and investments — measured as net worth (total assets minus liabilities).
Beyond money, it signifies long-term financial security, freedom and the ability to live comfortably. It often includes non-material resources like health, time freedom, and social status.
Key aspects of wealth include:
Net Worth: The fundamental measure of wealth, calculated as what you own minus what you owe.
Types of Wealth: Often categorized into four areas: Financial (money), Social (status), Time (freedom), and Physical (health).
Accumulation & Value: Wealth represents accumulated resources (savings, stocks, real estate) rather than just annual income.
Purpose: It provides security, independence and the opportunity to support causes through philanthropy.
Essentially, wealth is having the resources to live a desired life and pass value on to future generations.
It's all about "how much you made when you were right" & "how little you lost when you were wrong"
