Networth
Last Updated on Wednesday, 02 February 2011 18:36
Networth is the (hidden) amount of money you've made from certain things in Torn City.
- Networth is not the amount of money you have, nor the value of the possesions you own.
- You gain Awards and Ranks by achieving a certain Networth. Please see the relevant pages for those figures.
- There is no way to see your current networth.

Selling Items for networth
You can raise your networth quickly, for a price, by buying and selling items from shops.
This is because the sell value of any item you sell, from your inventory or to a shop (see table above), is added to your networth, making selling items a quick way to increase it. Remember that you will lose the difference in buying and selling price.
The following table shows the effectiveness of some popular items sold for networth:
| Item | Cost | Sell Value | Efficiency 1 |
| Six-pack of Beer | $ 200 | $ 175 | 87.5 % |
| Flamethrower | $ 3,000,000 | $ 2,500,000 | 83.333 % |
| Peugot 106 | $ 8,000 | $ 6,500 | 81.25 % |
| Full Body Armour | $ 75,000 | $ 60,000 | 80 % |
| ArmaLite M-15A4 Rifle | $ 20,000,000 | $ 15,000,000 | 75 % |
| Riot Gear | $ 10,000 | $ 7,500 | 75 % |
1 Percentage of cost returned when sold. Efficiency of Items bought from Big Al's in the City can be increased with the Gun Shop Company Special (see Companies).

I ponder...
Aerozol: Yeah, that works fine. Also buying and selling items that have little variation in buy/ sell price repeatedly. It's not really exploitation though, as it takes money out of the economy, which I'm sure the coders are happy with...
...
Aerozol: Once networth has been gained it can't be lost
so you can buy and sell things at will

1. buy 30 riot gears from the gun shop
2. sell them all
3. repeat until u cant buy anymore
any amount of money would work but i realized that with buy doing that with just 300k u make ur net worth go up to 800k so if ur going for the rank triger this is a very easy way if u have the money.
...
how do u find out how networth you have got???
TCB: You can't, it's hidden, like your levelling exp.
...
The first award based solely on net-worth is The Apprentice Award which requires $1,000,000, the 2K, 50K etc. awards are rank triggers, meaning that every time you pass one, you will receive a rank increase, (like #1 Beginner, #2 Beginner, #3 Inexperienced etc.) meaning you still receive a Merit, but not in the Net-Worth category.
P.S: Don't be surprised if you don't receive your merit 3 and 1/2 seconds after selling the items, it can take hours, even days for Merits to register, so don't complain about that here, I know for a fact that it is extremely irritating for Moderators, and don't do it on TC either, for the same reason. Hopefully, this should prevent a few more monotonous posts on this tutorial.

as far as i know the money gained from crimes does not contribute to networth
if it did, i would have gotten to the 1 mil networth in a fraction of the time it took me
i've been keeping track of the things i've sold to the shops since the beginning and everytime i came up with the next rank trigger or award, that was when i ranked up (or got the award)
i literally watched my rank change to eight ten seconds after i sold a stealth virus taking me over 1 million
i could be wrong though :]
...
("For example winning in the casino, selling items from your item page or selling them back to the stores or docks")
Is it outdated?
TCB: That information comes from TC staff. Of course, we can't 100% confirm the information, regrettably.

does this work ?
TCB: Yes

and then sold it in the shop for £1,500,000
would that increase my networth by £1,500,000 or decrease it by £1,500,000 ??
TCB: It increases by 1,500,000
...
TCB: Yes, it will.

I had a $10million gap to get next trigger/ $20mil mark. I divided 10million by 60,000 because thats how much full body armour sells for. I subtracted an extra 720,000 left over stuff i solde from previous milestone. When you hit rank/trigger your rank changes instantly but award/ merits come hours later. Well I ranked up before even finishing. I still had to sell 53 items. I calculated how much I have spent and it was barely over $10 million. mind you I did this all in the same day because I just made $10mill milestone and I went for $20 million milestone and it ranked me prematurely. Now I'm going to do final test of getting to 50Million milestone. If I get it prematurely again this means buying adds to networth!! Also I started out with 3million dollars and expected money I planned on losing was 2.3million dollars. and I ranked while losing only 1.5mill

TCB: Read the info on the page please.

I have tried this method out and i can confim it works very well. altho you lose 300k each time it ranks you up very quickly, i done this for 2 days and now have the 2nd networth award which is the millionaire award..... i ranked up as soon as i hit the trigger but didnt recieve the merits until midnight wen the site closed for its daily update!! I would be doin it all the time if i had the cash!!

By doing this every time you sell something in contributes to networth, and the networth doesn`t decrease if you buy something...
...
First I went in excel and pasted the Buy and Sell rates and found the ratios of each item (did not do armor/weapons because they take too long to sell), and found the Six-pack of Beer had the highest ratio (7/8, which means for every $8 you spend, you get $7 back, not too bad, like, if you spent 10,000,000 on these, you get 8,750,000 back), anyway, you must have firefox if you want to do this (I guess you could do it on Internet Explorer, I don't know if it has a reload all tabs button).
Go to the city and click on Bits-N-Bobs under East Side, then click the buy button on the Beer. On the "Are you sure page", hold down control and click the yes button a lot (opens a new tab), keep doing it until the tabs won't get any smaller. Then go to the last tab (so you'll know when they're all loaded) and just keep right clicking it and selecting reload all tabs.
Works like a charm.
