Count your house equity, your bank, brokerage, and IRA. But don't count anything that isn't vested and at least arguably liquid, and don't count anything you inherited.
I own the house I live in, I bought it with my savings, no loan, meaning the house was cheap to begin with, saved a good amount of money by not taking a loan.
I have around $30k in the bank and around $80k in real estate.
I work as a codemonkey, normal yearly salary for my country, about $80k/year.

I'd love to see some non-profit R+D department for social media. And I wonder what's the closest thing to that existing right now.
On the science side there are dry studies, either relatively tiny or looking at what is there.
On the practical side there are technical people fighting for privacy, decentralization and against censorship, but with little feel or innovation beyond that.
No one does proper product research.
I wrote a concept for a curation tool in my studies, but it didn't really fit the program and I wonder where it could fit after all. Now I'm just earning money as a product manager and can't afford not to.
Not OP but just wanted to answer haha
I make over 300k a year though so I'm catching up on paying this off.
Potentially the same with your credit card debt. For example if you bought 100 guitars worth $1,000 each, you might have $100,000 in debt, but also $100,000 in assets, assuming somebody would pay you what you paid for them.
Of course, if you spent the $100,000 on restaurants and vacations, they are not likely to be worth anything to anybody other than you.
Not judging here. Just demonstrating the power of buying assets.
Commented so you don’t feel bad about being the only non-millionaire on this site.
Although it does seem there are tons of very wealthy people on here. I mean, I see one comment with 20ish million and another with 100 million. I'll never see that in my life.
