Net Worth?
we are young and reaching for the moon. i want to see how much and where your money are allocated. and what are your goals and your thoughts on what category we should focus on in order build wealth faster(ie. real estate, stocks, business??).
me.. my goal is to eclipse the 1M mark at age 40. I am a little slow and conservative.
28 y/o
assets:
430K home/rentals
13K car
10K savings
-361 home/rentals debt
-13K car debt
equals 79K Net worth.
thanks for your input in advance.

Networth is to some extent irrelevant. My business is worth over 1 million but I don't have access to anything like a million pounds at this stage ....... and I have no intention of selling :-)

In my opinion Real Estate is a great way of building your net worth. My whole family is involved in real estate and have been since my Grandfather was child, he's 90 now. You just have to watch the market and find undervalued properties. I bought a duplex in Los Angeles that was priced almost 300K undervalue, only because the previous owner did not have the property appraised before he listed it. I found it and made an offer that day, this was after searching for a property to purchase in L.A. for over 8 months.
I have also found that Timberland investments, large tracks of bare land with timber, is another way to build your net worth. But you can't flip these type of properties because the value is in the timber and the larger the timber grows the more value you will have. There are several websites where you can buy timberland for cheap, just have to spend some time looking. Stocks and bonds I don't pay that much attention too, but I have invested in some solid companies and will just hold onto the stock.
Businesses are good too, if you can created a great business with no or low overhead, which is what I have built. It's a simple idea, but very marketable at the same time.
Here's a great calculator that you can use to estimate your net worth.

Good Luck

I have three companies now worth over $500,000 in 1 year. I think I was worth $10,000 at this same time last year.
The funny thing is that once you have money it becomes much easier to invest and start other companies. However even if you post large profits, we still wont have to pay the government much. Start new companies, buy things that create money, then you dont have to pay as much to them.
Yes and now we are starting a real estate holding company.
I am 22

Hey, could you tell me about your first startup and how you got into it. I am 21 and looking to start a company up, completely unsure of what I want to do looking for different routes.

I love how people throw around valuations of their OWN privately held companies.  Unless you've got a buyer with money on the table, or are publicly traded, these valuations mean squat.
I might as well start a solar company slap a 100x PE on there, net a cool $100k, and call it a $10m company....

Weird, you make a lot of money to not pay your website bill,lol. Your website is down,hehe...
Anyway I guess my husband and I, have about a million or so in net worth. Maybe more or less. He knows more than I do. We have 5 local store fronts and own 2 homes. We have 3 time shares we own also. I could probably sit here all day listing stuff.
