I noticed this recently, too.  What seems to be happening is that in both
1835 and 18EU, the minor companies are counted as zero in net worth.  While
this may be correct in the rules, it's a distortion for players who want to
use net worth as a way to predict final positions.

I suggest that in 1835, the privates and minors should be counted as the
value of the PR shares they will eventually trade for (77M per 5% if PR has
not yet formed), while for 18EU, I would just count them all as $100 each
(as a ballpark estimate).
