Bulgogi Hoagie posted:you got owned pretty hard there buddy by people whose argument is insisting he is wrong and owned without actual evidence like his net worth is over a million, net worth accounts for debt, and (not yet mentioned) having debt at that level of wealth isn't actually detrimental the way it is for a household; his income may not be 1 million/year, but he owns over a million dollars worth of productive assets, which is way better than having 1 million in the bank. so am i missing something that makes this line of argument anything other than shallow posturing?

Vox Nihili posted:their argument is that the 45 y/o british pharmacist who owns a successful company worth ~1 million may actually be in enormous personal debt that overshadows his assets to the extent that hes technically not quite a millionaire. it's quite silly, but it's great fodder for pedants because it can't technically be disproved like they think this dude has 500k in credit card debt or something
