800k down and 11% loss. Was your portfolio 8 million at the start of the year?

800k is 11 % of ~7.272 million, so no it wasn't 8 mill.
How can it be any of those?

I said my net worth is down 11% from last year, and my YTD portfolio return is roughly -21% or $800k.

My bad. I assumed they only messed up the math, not everything. 00k is 21% of ~3.8mm, which, coincidentally, is also about the size of my portfolio in the public market prior to the big tastefest. Congrats on being financiall secure everywhere except San Francisco, Singapore, central London and maybe Hong Kong.
