Great article Jeff. There are obviously different ways of calculating Net Worth value, but I like your approach.
As a WordPress user, you might be interested in the Net Worth Plugin that we just released: http://www.creditcardfinder.com.au/net-worth. It is free to download and would be great to get your feedback.

Cheers

Yeah, net worth falls into the “Personal” Finance category. We all view it differently and use I differently. Since I have a long way to go, I use it to fire my a$s up to go out make as much money as I can. Other people can sit back a relax because they have a positive number. Even when I get there I don’t believe I’ll be able to sit back. I’m a hungry person and getting into the positive area of the curve will really get me moving. At that point I’ll be able to save for the businesses I’d like to get into (gotta pay cash though).

Just imagine how much more you’d be in the positive if you blasted that debt away. I’m sure since you are already in the positive you could blow it up super quick. Just something to think about.

Have a great weekend Mark!!!

Growing your net quickly means different things for people in different financial situations. But I do agree with you, that paying down debt is the most surest way into a positive territory. I myself have a positive net worth but my debt is dragging it down a little. Mostly because I do include everything, including my car lease, which does have a balance, even if I don’t own the car.

Keep at it, a pizza at a time, you will get there.

Yeah, I love the graphic I just can’t remember where the idea came from. Oh yeah, I copied it from J. Money over at BudgetAreSexy I figure if you have a positive net worth that you track, I might as well track mine – even though I’m slightly behind yours.
