Another month of positive movement for my net worth! In November, my net worth increased 2.62%. Breaking down the numbers, it looks like my investments had a surprisingly good month, while my cash accounts only increased a little bit. Of course, there was some movement from cash to investments, as always (Roth IRA contribution), but I’m disappointed I wasn’t able to spend more this month.
That said, this was an expensive month. Dental bills (yes, I have already signed up for dental insurance for 2010) and a bunch of legal courses so I can keep my law license. Clearly, I had the money, as I spent and still managed to save… but I would have liked to have saved more.
In November, my roommate moved out. That’s going to be a hit to my cashflow. I’m still trying to figure out how that’s all going to work, and it will probably take a bit of juggling, but I’ll be fine. Now I’m just waiting to see who falls into my lap as my new roommate. It worked the last time, after all!
Thanks you so much for hosting my blog on entrecard today. I love how you are calculating your net worth each month. I think this is a great way to stay motivated and know where your money is going.
