Household Net Worth
The net worth of households and nonprofit organizations increased by $6.9 trillion to $130.2 trillion in the fourth quarter. The value of directly and indirectly held corporate equities increased by $4.9 trillion largely because of further gains in corporate equity prices. The value of real estate held by households increased by $0.9 trillion. After three quarters of solid growth, household net worth is now about $12 trillion above its level at the end of 2019.

WASHINGTON—The net worth of U.S. households finished 2020 at the highest level on record, as soaring prices for stocks, real estate and other assets erased losses inflicted by the coronavirus pandemic and related economic downturn.

Household net worth—the difference between assets and liabilities —--ended the fourth quarter at $130.2 trillion, the Federal Reserve said Thursday. That was up 5.6% from the third quarter and 10% from the end of 2019.

Japan was higher in 90s, until it collapsed.

I’d be wary about this comparison because the demographics are totally different

Just imagine that 50% of all the dollars that have been printed in history were printed in the last 12 months. US is on the path to hyperinflation.

money printer goes BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Net worth is not the same as cash, in most cases its physical and financial assets such as cars, houses, land, business assets, stocks, bonds...etc. Jeff Bezos is worth around 200 billion dollars, that doesn't mean he has 200 billion dollars on hand.

I'll check the sources properly later, but skimming through the second source I don't really see anything proves you right. The first source i can't even open.

I'll try again later, when I have time
