Wealth and Income are two very different concepts. Wealth is
a person’s net worth, which can be found by adding up the value of someone’s
property and subtracting that person’s debts. Income is a flow of money that
can come from a variety of places such as wages, rent, interest, an allowance,
and even gambling. In this picture I am showing Cracker Barrel and a ledger I created
to help determine my wealth (it’s not 100% accurate by any means!). Cracker
Barrel is my job; I spend 40+ hours a week there and it is my only source of
cash flow. My income is the only way I can purchase things that I want. In the ledger,
there are two colors; black for property and red for debts. By adding up the ‘black’
numbers and subtracting the ‘red’ numbers, my wealth can be determined.
