Provided you actually own it.

That is not done, when estimating net worth.

Can you provide some evidence for that?

Because a house you own that has a monetary value is most definitely an asset.

I don't place a value on human life, since I think we're all equal and there's no amount of money in the world worth one person.

Except old people. The ACA's death panels can euthanize them, legally. We need soylent green, damn it.

Since always. An asset generates income. A home is an expense.

Notice how I did not raise issue with his rental income? That's an asset. It generates income, in the form of rent.


That's the worst definition of an asset I've ever heard. You're a pretend economist, not a pretend accountant. Leave the balance sheets to the professionals.

Personally ability to maintain ones lifestyle for a year comfortably would be my marker but I'm sure it varies heavily between individuals.

Not a clue, I'm just not particularly comfortable sharing a specific number. Let's just say that if I really wanted to, I wouldn't have to work to sustain a middle-class lifestyle. But since I'd like to try and live a higher-class lifestyle, and I enjoy my future career plans, I'll still be pursuing a career.

How do you do it? Aren't you somewhere in your 20s? Looks like you picked up some kabbalah stuff from Israel. You're the guy who used to live in Israel, right? I'm bad at remembering this stuff.

I, personally, am somewhere in the mid-hundreds, being 17 and currently jobless. My family is in the 100-500k range, maybe a little outside of it with all assets included.

Well, if my bank letters are correct, 2K and something euros Yay. I think. My mom shreds those things to make room. Something around that. Apparently she had a pile of money stashed away to set up and out money into bank accounts for her future children. She must have put away a nice bit.

If you're that desperate to have some man meat they already have webpages for you.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.
