Your True Net Worth

What is your net worth? If we're privileged enough to have our base needs covered, this is something we worry about this as we get older. Do I earn enough? Do I own as many assets as I should? How can I accumulate more? We measure ourselves against friends. We compare ourselves to the national average. We consult financial advisors. We seek anything that will increase that dollar figure that defines us.

In truth, dollar-denominated worth misleads us. Somewhere along the way we confused ourselves, became victims of avarice and lost sight of what matters. Let’s set the record straight: Relative to your means, your net worth is the product of your ability to make a positive impact on the world and your propensity to act upon it.
