Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I see a term like "net worth" and I say to myself "That's simple: assets - liabilities=NW." BAM! Done.
An investment portfolio is a different beast, thus a different number.
Overall, I agree with this. That said, I think talking about that kind of NW is kinda meaningless. I guess "portfolio" would be the accurate way to talk about this "road to 1M" since that's what really matters.
