NET WORTH
In order to evaluate your progress as you work toward your goals, you must determine what your overall financial picture
looks like today. Your net worth is simply the difference between what you own and what you owe. To make sure you are
staying on track, its a good idea to calculate your assets and liabilities annually. If you conscientiously follow your plan
you should see a gradual, steady increase in your net worth.

Checking/saving accounts
Investment accounts
IRA/401(k)

Automobile(s)
Other assets

Credit cards
Student loans
Auto loan(s)

To figure your net worth, subtract the total owed from the total owned.

ESSENTIAL EXPENSES
Household expenses are categorized into essential and discretionary. You will find that many of the essential expenses are
variable (such as utilities and groceries). It is important that you average these expenses. Other expenses are periodic (such
as insurance or vehicle registration). Again, calculate the annual amount and divide by 12.

BOTTOM LINE
Once you have determined the total of your take-home pay and expenses you are ready to determine your bottom line.
Subtract the total of all expenses including debt payments from your net income. If the result is a positive number, you can
add the extra money to your savings to reach your goals sooner. If your expenses exceed your income, youll need to make
some adjustments to bring your finances back into balance.
