Net Worth – April
I’ve updated my net worth for April. It is a bit discouraging to see such a negative number for my net worth, but at least I’m making positive progress. The negative percentage in the monthly difference is throwing me off a little because I’ve made positive gains in my net worth over the past few months. However, I’m sure it is a problem with my formula and the calculation for negative numbers. I’ll fix it next time.
Also, I feel the need to point out that I’m doing pretty good considering that I’m a full-time student without gainful employment. I have a bit of cleaning work that goes straight to savings, but that doesn’t factor into my monthly budget.
I also plan to include my fiancé’s numbers but wanted to get this up while I was motivated. Plus, it’ll probably be even more intimidating to see just how much the net worth will drop once I add in his credit card debt. He has a fair amount of personal property assests (mostly large machinery) that will help, but the net worth will still take a hit. We’ve certainly got a lot of work ahead of us, but I know that we can do it.
Update: Here is our combined net worth — yes, I’m still optimistic that things will improve. I also fixed the net worth percentage of difference — just needed to make my divisor an absolute value.
