Here’s a snapshot of our finances as of March 1st.
SAVINGS (Checking, ING Savings) +710 to $32,119
A decent bump but I would have liked to have seen it go up even more.
INVESTMENTS (Fidelity, Zecco, Edward Jones, Prosper and ESPP) +$1,946 to $13,077
This was mostly market, but I did finally learn how to access my ESPP to see how much is in it, so that bumped us up another $1,300 or so.
I am still missing Bird’s ESPP account info. Figuring it out is not high on my priority list. She thinks she has around $1,500 in hers.
RETIREMENT (Roth IRA, Current 401k, Former 401k, Bird’s Former 401k, Bird’s Current 401k) +$2,077 to $52,437
Markets helped us out here.
STUDENT LOANS +$77 to $27,290
I can’t figure out how to report on my loans. They moved down 77 dollars but does that get a minus sign and red or a plus sign and green. I’m going with green for now because it seems more positive. It’s sad when you pay almost $250 though and your loan only goes down by $77. At least it’s going down.
Overall, our net worth was up 7 percent to $70,343.
Not too shabby considering we had to pay double rent this month on top of paying the tenant back her security deposit. Pretty cool to break the 70k mark!!!

Nice increase!
Maybe you could state your student loan amount in red and keep showing the payments in green.
Also, how long do you have to pay double rent?
Hey, I like that idea for my loans. Thanks.
And we only had to pay double for February, so that wasn’t so bad.
Congrats on the growth of your Net Worth!
I despise my CC/loan payments, too! My CC says I paid down $1K this month, but it doesn’t show how much I actually paid on those darn things. Darn interest they take! Evil, I tell you!
