Networth

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.
When you earn money by doing certain things it adds to your networth. Once your networth reaches certain amounts, you gain awards.
There is no way to see your current networth.

 Things that don't contribute to Networth:     
  Things that do contribute to Networth:
     
Your Money/ Assets
  Money gained from crimes:
Selling items in the Item Market
 
Selling items in the Auction House  
RR bet wins  
Money received from other players  
Money gained from the Casino    
Money received from Missions

  Money gained from selling items from your
inventory:
Buying/ Selling/ Trading/ Renting Houses


Money made while Hunting  
Money made by Mugging other players  
Bank Interest  
Trading on the Point market  
Selling Ammunition
  or to shops:
Lottery wins
 
Company Earnings
 
Faction Organised Crimes
 
Selling Pets    
Dog fighting bet wins   Donator Packs sold in the Pawn Shop:
Selling points in the Pawn Shop  
Making money in the Stockmarket    
 Unsure?
   

   
Job Pay
   
Winnings from Craps


note: You can raise your networth quickly, for a price, by buying and selling items from shops. For instance, if you buy a Full Body Armor, and then sell it to the shop again, you will gain $60,000 networth. You can do this as often, and with whatever items you wish, but remember that you have to pay the difference in buying and selling price.

Question: If I unequipped my weapon and just clicked the sell button would that count toward my networth?

TCB: Yes

Says you gain networth from money gained from selling items to shops.. Do you think this would only be true if they were items you stole? If that weren't the case, then one could have a wealthy friend give them lots of money, buy items, and just sell them off to shops in order to increase their networth and get a merit, no?

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...

Feel dumb for asking this but - if I sold a gun to the shop, an then bought something, would I lose the net worth I gained from selling my gun?

Aerozol: Once networth has been gained it can't be lost
so you can buy and sell things at will

Ok so i found the best way to make ur net worth go up and all u need is 300k

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.

@ All the people saying "I only just started and haven't gotten any net-worth awards yet:"

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.

okay i did an extensive test on networth well kind of extensive, but anyways....
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 :]

i believe you are wrong when you say it doesn't include money you got from the points market because this morning i was awarded my first net worth award the only thing i did this morning was sell 10 points on the points market and them wholar i had and award the apprenticeship award.

has anyone else experienced this or am i just special

@FReakyboy

Maybe you simply did something hours or even days earlyer that earned you the reward, only to receive it when you sold the points. Simply coincidence, I would think.

I'm certain money earned from your job counts towards networth too :)

If you ask Darwin, however, it states that earnings in the Casino do count for the Networth tally...
("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.

If I buy things, does this decrease my networth? Or does it just increase?

TCB: Neither.

do buying and selling houses up your networth?

I think the some of the casino games add to net-worth. I had banked all I had (~$1,007,800) and then about 2-3 days later, I got the apprentice award. I couldn't have gotten that award from just crimes alone because about $800,000 came from the casino. The casino game I played was Craps.

so, if i buy item X from the market for £3,000,000
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

I read the comments, but i have a question about mizzu's comment. I bought the armour, but i could not sell it a big al's. I can only sell it in my items. If i do this, will it still count towards my net worth? Thanks in advance

TCB: Yes, it will.

i dont think selling points contributes to networth i bought a donator pack like 20 days ago and sold all the points for 1mil and still dont have a networth award

Does income from a company count, if so then i could pay my boss a few mil a day which he pays me back in salary and gain networth awards at a pretty fast rate...

I been doing some test and by test I mean buying items and selling them back to the store. I came to the conclusion that buying from stores also increases networth.

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

Calculation error probaly, I got $50million milestone but It was from all selling. Sry :*(

So, if you invested your cash in the bank for however long, would that money you got from investing go towards the networth and maybe give you a rank trigger?

TCB: Read the info on the page please.
