|
Date: March 23rd, 2018 12:07 PM Author: amber laughsome twinkling uncleanness I think that can be true for a lot of assets (cars, jewelry). There are other qualities that make assets more or less fungible, but I don't think they should be excluded from net worth (unless you're going to totally redefine what it means).
Maybe some other classification (easily investable worth?) makes sense. |
