A Balance Sheet consists of Assets/Liabilities/Net Worth. It is not one-sided. Why do some folks think it is?

The value of what you own is reduced by the value of what you owe resulting in your net worth. You can own $40 billion  in assets but if your liabilities are $40 billion your net worth is zero. Does anyone KNOw what Donald John owes and to whom?

    No one has talked about a balance sheet. 
    People have talked about the value of a tax return.
    A tax return is NOT a balance sheet.
