Net worth would also be bogus as a measurement. You can't really class someone who has $ 500,000 in net worth after forty years of work and savings in the same group as someone who has parlayed options after 5 to 10 years of work. In the first case, much of the buildup was helped by the accumulated impact of inflation. Much of net worth has already been subjected to income taxes in past.
