Every month I post my updated net worth for those that are interested in following my progress. I have been tracking my net worth online since January 2006. I look forward to compiling the numbers each month, and doing so keeps me motivated, focused, and accountable.
Another big swing to the downside. Rough start to the year. I’ll try to ignore the fact that my January 2015 Net Worth was only a couple grand less than this…
Ouch!!! I think we all took a big hit to our NW in January with the stock market :-( I think I saw a pretty similar drop to yours. It’s comforting to know that over time we will get it all back and then some :-).
Yeah, it’s a bit painful to see a drop like that, but like you said, it’s not permanent. When you are consistently contributing to your investment accounts, it’s just an opportunity to buy at cheaper prices. But, wouldn’t it be nice if the accounts only went up?
