We're not communicating and I'm telling ya it's not for want of effort.  If we're talking wealth as it has to do w/ economics then lets use some standard published agreed upon definition.  Example (from investopedia):

DEFINITION of 'Wealth'

A measure of the value of all of the assets of worth owned by a person, community, company or country. Wealth is the found by taking the total market value of all the physical and intangible assets of the entity and then subtracting all debts.

Essentially, wealth is the accumulation of resources. People are said to be wealthy when they are able to accumulate many valuable resources or goods. Wealth is expressed in a variety of ways. For individuals, net worth is the most common expression of wealth, while countries measure by gross domestic product (GDP) or GDP per capita.

There are other descriptions but we got to be together on the same one definition/description before we can swap ideas.
