Note 136 — Chapter VIII · SENIOR
Reading edition
Political Economy, p. 6. These are the three constituents of wealth, but things composing wealth are defined to be the same as things of value. Curiously the qualification of transferableness is held not to exclude personal talents from the category of wealth, for these are considered to be things “imperfectly transferable.” A lawyer transfers his talents to me when I hire him to plead my case. See pp. 9-10.
