While I don't look at a house necessarily as an investment asset (unless I was a landlord), it may or may not affect your cash flow/budget/SWR vs living in card board box (or renting).
(emphasis mine) Ah!! I see you have discovered my Plan C. That, food stamps, and a tin cup + cardboard sign.
As for how net worth is computed, I agree with those who say that depends on one's intended use for the numbers.
