"Zuckerberg loses a $16bn in a day"
"Bill Gates is worth over $100bn"
"Kanye is now worth $3bn"
Net worth is a point in time measure. It fluctuates almost daily. Depending how liquid you are, it can fluctuate by A LOT.

What& #39;s liquid?
Liquid isn& #39;t just a finely crafted single malt. It& #39;s how easily you& #39;re able to convert assets into cash.
You drive a Ferrari & own a Camps Bay villa. You& #39;re at the garage at 3AM buying a Red Bull
Can you pay using your house? No.
You need actual cash on hand!

Zuckerberg has 410m shares of Facebook. FB stock is now at $190.
That gives him a net worth of about $78bn.
If FB stock slides to $170, he& #39;s now worth $70bn.
Did he actually just "lose" $8bn?!
No, because he hasn& #39;t sold a single stock. Fancy finance term is "unrealized"

Hands down, Comeback Kanye is an incredible story. Bankruptcy to Billionaire.
If he& #39;s worth $3bn, how much cash do you think he has immediate access to at any given second? $1bn? $2bn? All of it?
He has $17mn in cash & $35mn in stocks.
The rest is tied up in non-liquid assets.

Kanye owns 100% of Yeezy. Adidas produces & distributes them.
He gets most of the profits right?
No. He gets royalties of 15% of the sales and it& #39;s closer to 10-11% after expenses.
Basically, Kanye makes 10c for every $1 in Yeezy sales.

Depending on the valuation multiple you apply on his stake, he& #39;s worth at least $1.4bn.
That& #39;s based on an EV/Sales multiple of 10x applied to $140m in top line (2019).
Naturally he believes he can double the business in 5 years & that& #39;s actually not a outlandish estimate.
