July Net Worth

We managed another gain in the net worth this month. It wasn't huge, but at least it was a gain!!!

Net Worth: 139,664.33 +3,357.45 +2.46%
Net Worth w/o Home: 44,664.33 -18.78%
Net Worth w/o Home or IRA: 12,391.95 -42.81%

YTD:
Net Worth: +17.98%
Net Worth w/o Home: -28.41%
Net Worth w/o Home or IRA: -52.28%

We finished paying off the house this month, hence the huge swings in the numbers without the house included considering that's where the money was stored to payoff the house. Next month should see all three numbers rising as we start sticking more and more money into the Vanguard account. We should easily be able to meet our first goal of saving 10K in the Vanguard account. After that, we will start working on the 10K FAN list which keeps getting shorter as more things break and therefore gets replaced earlier than expected.

After the 10K FAN list is done, the next goal is to reach 30K. Right after that will be to finish off the 30K FAN list, and then we get to start investing. That will be exciting!!!
