Words Mean Things.

It's quite telling that in a thread titled "Stupidity in motion." *Two* of the biggest idiots who post often don't know what an "asset" is.

But on to the point, no one cares what *you* think the definition of a word is. The word "asset" has had a well defined meaning since the 1600's.

words do mean things. and in financial accounting and legal terms, a car is clearly an asset. for household accounting and colloquial use, it's much less clear whether a car should be considered an asset.
