That's interesting. On the surface one might assume she's just dumb and doesn't understand how to assess her finances, but I wonder if there's more to it; maybe she already knew her net worth (or didn't particularly care), but wanted to know what other people say her net worth is.

Ngl, if I had "people googling my net worth" money, I'd check at least once lol

She didn't. She was in the hole $1.5M. There's a whole series of fraud cases which are basically her singled-handed personal ponzi scheme of bad loans that are still pending trial.
