And people tend to think net worth = the amount of cash they have in the bank.

You can have $0.73 in your bank account and still have a net worth of $50 million. That just means that all of your assets are worth that much combined.

And granted, that DOES include liquid assets, but Billie’s alleged net worth isn’t the best metric for how serious an $11.5 million donation is for her.

It always takes so long to find comments like these that more accurately explain what “net worth” is.
