A wise man once told me that people who’re really and truly wealthy hardly ever go broke; they have cash flow issues perhaps. By his theory, if you go broke as I’m in the habit of, you were only ‘chapteh’ (you had some economic fluke); so you were actually not rich in the exact sense of the word.
I don’t know about that, but here’s a fact: how much you’re really worth is the value of everything you own, minus all your debts; ask any accountant.
Sometimes we’re so into the things that we own that we pay no attention to what we owe, and so we become ostentatious whilst deeply in debt - like that dude that was so indebted that he was so tormented that he’s now demented was like:
“Yo, nice kicks Mike! I had the same pair of Jordans that I lost with my Louis Vuitton backpack. They were on the passenger seat of my Bimma. Glad the thief didn’t touch my Rolex in my Armani suit.”
