Knowing your personal net worth is one of the most important aspects of personal finance. It's one of the best indicators we have to know if we are on target to meet our goals. Whether you want to be debt-free, buy a home, pay for college for your children, or to retire you need to be on target. Your net worth is a way to see what is holding us back. It's a very strong indicator of your overall financial health. Figuring out your net worth is easy. Add up the total value of all of your assets. Add up the total value of all of your debts.
