What kind of worth? As a human being or in a monetary sense?

Worth as a human being is the only kind that matters.

The other kind can be taken away from you in an instant. It's convenient, but meaningless as any measure of who you are.

There are more than a few people around the world who have almost no -- or no -- money, but are richer than you are now or probably will ever be unless you change a lot more than I think you're capable of.

Money comes, money goes. Who you are goes on till the day you die. And for many people a lot longer than that. One very good measure of true worth is how many people will genuinely mourn you when you die.

How many people do you think would genuinely mourn YOU if you died in a crash of your fancy car tomorrow?
