The importance of consistency
Net Worth = Assets - Liabilities
Your net worth gives an overview of your financial situation at this point. It is the difference between what you own and what you owe.
Your net worth is positive if your assets exceed your liabilities.
A negative net worth is when your liabilities are greater than your assets.

Find your ideal
Determine your target net worth - where you want to be in the near-term and long-term future.
The following formula is helpful:
Target Net Worth=[Your Age−25]∗[1/5∗Gross Annual Income]
A 50-year-old with a gross annual income of $75,000 might aim for a net worth of $375,000 ([50 - 25 = 25] x [$75,000 ÷ 5 = $15,000])
Your net worth can be much more or much less than the amount indicated by the guideline.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
