Net Worth.....February 1st Update

We are actually up over $10k from the January 1st net worth overall(only liquid cash/investments/bonds, as I don't count housing or car values).  The retirement accounts were up $5K+ for February 1st 2017 from the January 1st 2017 calculations and the cash reserve/non-retirement accounts were up almost exactly $5K.

We are up $95,582.97 from one year ago, from the February 1st of 2016's net worth snapshot.  

We are still in acquisition mode and Hubs still has a good income. His disability pay is still at 100% of his income and he is returning to work next week(working from home as he is still not cleared to drive yet).  I'll be curious to see if this Friday's paycheck drops to 70% of income or not.  I'm still unclear on when the cutoff is for his first month of disability pay.

Life happens and is expensive so save as much as you can for those rainy days no matter your age or how close/far away you are from retirement.

Did you increase your net worth last month?
Do you have a retirement plan in place?

Net Worth.....Jan. 2017 Update

We are actually up over $7.5k from December 1st's net worth overall(only liquid cash/investments/bonds, as I don't count housing or car values).  The retirement accounts were up $6K+ for January 1 2017 from the December 1 2016 calculations and the cash reserve/non-retirement accounts were up almost $1.5K.

We are up $91,601.13 from one year ago, in the January 1st of 2016's net worth snapshot.  

We are still in acquisition mode and Hubs still has a good income.  As for disability pay, that has kicked in at 100% of regular income but won't drop to the 70% rate until sometime in February if he still can't work from home or return to the offic by then.

September 1st Net Worth

We are actually up $17k from July 1st's net worth overall(only liquid cash/investments, as I don't count housing or car values).  The retirement accounts were up $12K+ for September 1 from July's calculations and the cash reserve/non-retirement accounts were up almost $5K.
I didn't calculate an August 1st Net Worth as we were on vacation then so September 1st's net worth is two months worth of gain, not one.

We are up $86,178.38 from one year ago, in the September 1st of 2015's net worth snapshot. 

Once Hubs retires I will miss these little monthly look backs, when we move from acquisition mode with money to spend-down mode. ;-)

April 1st Net Worth Snapshot

We are up $6,800.14 from last month's net worth overall(only liquid cash/investments, as I don't count housing or car values).
However, in just the non-retirement accounts(savings, cash on hand, bonds, etc.)we are DOWN $3,695.68.  This is due to paying for the renovation project we had done in Feb./March from these monies.
Oh well.....you win some, you lose some, and I am ok with this trade-off....less cash, better and functional surroundings.  '-)

We are up $104,375.25 however from one year ago, the April 1st of 2015 net worth snapshot.  This is due to the retirement account earnings and additions.
So things are still ok with me here as overall we are trending further ahead than we were a year ago.

Yeah, I especially like that latter one.  ;-)
