The article is flawed. It distinguishes between having money and making money - this is very questionable.

From a scientific view wealth == money. Wealth is measured in money, something is worth x dollar. How this money is stored is another question, it can be stock, gold or whatever.

From a philosophical point of view wealth can be whatever you want it to be. I think the view of the author is quite sane and i agree with him on that; but please don't tell me , this is the right definition of wealth.

BTW I am reading Hackers & Painters right now and pg has a similar concept of wealth.
