    Well, it’s not money, it’s assets.

    If you have a house, car, etc, that collectively cost 1mil, you’re worth 1mil.

    What you could do with the extra money you have is putting it into assets that generate cash flow. Stocks, bonds, indexes, businesses. If you can manage it well enough, it could secure you a lifestyle where you can ditch your job without being strapped for cash.

    That’s basically what the rich do, except on a MUCH larger scale, where the cash flow generated is enough literally throw money around.
