There’s a lot of noise online about money. People flexing, claiming high net worths, or calling others broke based on surface-level assumptions. But here’s the truth:

Most people don’t actually understand what net worth means.

And that misunderstanding is costing them clarity, confidence — and in some cases — real financial growth.

​Let’s break it down.

Scroll through any platform and you’ll see it: flashy claims of being “worth” a million, two million, ten million…

And naturally, people assume that means the money is just sitting in someone’s bank account.

Wrong.

Here are the two false beliefs the internet pushes:

1. If someone says they’re worth $2M, people think that’s liquid cash.

2. If they don’t have $2M liquid, people label them broke.

​But this isn’t how real money works — and anyone who’s actually built wealth knows better.

Your net worth is a simple formula:

Assets – Liabilities = Net Worth

That includes:

Equity in businesses

Real estate holdings

Stocks or crypto portfolios

Intellectual property (IP)

Even leveraged positions (debt-backed assets)

​If you own a business that does $500K/year and is valued at $1.5M, that’s part of your net worth — even if you only keep $30K/month in your checking account.

Let’s use a powerful example: MrBeast, the world’s top YouTuber.

He publicly stated that while his net worth exceeds $1 billion, he keeps less than $1 million liquid in his account. Why? Because the money is working — in production, staff, brand assets, and reinvestment.

This is normal for high-level entrepreneurs. In fact, it’s a smart way to scale.

On the flip side:

Someone can be worth $5M and only have $100K in cash.

Someone else can be worth $100K and have $50K in cash.

​Cash ≠ wealth. Liquidity is a snapshot. Net worth is the full picture.

Here’s the business mindset shift
:
👉 Real players don’t waste time judging how liquid someone is.
👉 They focus on building their own pie.

If you’re constantly measuring others by what’s in their bank account, you’ll miss the opportunity to:

Learn from real business models

Understand how wealth is compounded

Invest time into building assets that grow your net worth

​That mindset will keep you stuck in the small game.

If you’re serious about wealth creation, focus on the following:

Start or acquire cashflow-producing assets
→ Businesses, digital products, or trading systems

Invest in things that appreciate over time
→ Real estate, equities, IP, scalable content

Track your real net worth monthly
→ Don’t just check your bank app — look at your equity growth

Separate your ego from your liquidity
​→ Just because you don’t have cash right now doesn’t mean you’re failing
