Yesterday I was idly wondering how wealthy is the US? I mean add up all the cash, stocks, bonds, real estate and other assets. I suppose subtract out debt (but I’m not really sure about that — that would just seem to indicate ownership, not value. But I’m not certain).

A quick google shows a Wiki page that does all the work for me.  Financial position of the United States says about $124 trillion, only less than a decade of GDP, which surprises me. I was also wondering what happens if we just divide it all up among the 330 million people in the country. By my numbers it comes to about $375k per person. Not as much as I thought, but probably more than a lot of places in the world.
