Facts but the number I gave you is not including mortgage that’s just debt.
It would be a lot more if I added mortgage debt, but that’s debt that can create money so I didn’t include it.

A mortgage is a type of debt.
You can have tons of debt and still have positive net worth.

No doubt. But I think it’s about 68% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, so not many people have a positive net worth even in debt.

Even the 25th percentile for net worth in the US was $12,000 as of 2020
Meaning 75% of households have a net worth in excess of $12,000
