How is "net worth" defined?
When frequencies enter the economy, to be worth something they need 
returns from the already existing economy; (i.e.) debit entries made by 
others that in turn require returns to have been "worth"while. 
Assets=Debts; there is nothing economically (exchange-value) "net". As I 
see it, the "net worth" you have in mind is meta-economic and exists in 
terms of use-value only.
