June Net Worth (+0.66%)

Another positive month!  My net worth went up 0.66% this month.  Not much, but it’s positive movement.  I like that sort of progress.  This month’s increases were mostly my investments.  My cash accounts stayed pretty much the same.  Of course, that’s with a contribution to my Roth IRA, so some of the money was moving from cash accounts into investments.  Either way, it was a fairly expensive month, which is something I’m hoping to change this month.

I do have a set of plane tickets to buy either this month or next, so there’s a solid upcoming expense, and I’ve got an insurance bill coming, so there are some big expenses on the horizon, but I’m ready for them.

It’s such a great feeling to watch my retirement accounts grow, especially my Roth IRA, which took a huge hit in 2008.  My overall return on that account is still -27%, but that’s much better than it was, and things seem to be moving in the right direction again.  Besides, I’m buying low!  That’s what’s important.
