See my above explanation. Someone steals your Sentra and it's not insured. You're likely screwed. Gates crashes his Ferrari, he buys another Ferrari.
Gates car was worth more but yours was more valuable to you than his was to him. Try to keep up.
Wow. If someone steals your sentra and it isn't insured, the value is $0.
No one is stealing anything in this massively convoluted analogy.
Ballplayer A is valued at X
Ballplayer B is valued at X+4
There is no team, situation, Bill Gates/Homeless analogy, where A is more valuable than B.
