Is money an asset, and what else is considered an asset? The answer is yes, of course, money is an asset. Specifically, it is a liquid asset because it can be quickly and easily used to buy goods, services, or pay debts. In financial terms, assets are resources owned that have economic value, and money definitely fits that description.

Apart from money, assets come in various types including physical assets like real estate, vehicles, equipment, and machinery, and inventory or stock. Next are financial assets, which include stocks and shares, bonds, savings accounts, and mutual funds. And the last type of assets are intangible assets, which include intellectual property, brand reputation, goodwill, and software.

Each asset type has different characteristics like liquidity, value stability, and usage.

Your skill is an asset. You produce money from it like your digital services business. Someone's face or beauty is also an asset. Assets can be acquired either short or long - term.
