Hi ladies,<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I struggle with the word asset, and I\u2019m wondering if you can help me. I\u2019m hearing asset a lot in crime movies and other shows and even interviews.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

I know it has different meanings, but I\u2019m just not sure I understand all of them. I think it\u2019s like a valuable person or a valuable thing\u2013but can you clarify that\u2019s correct?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks for your help,<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
