How to use Net Worth Calculator
This net worth calculator gives you a single, honest snapshot of your financial position by subtracting everything you owe from everything you own. Add your assets — cash, investments, retirement accounts, property and vehicles — and your liabilities such as a mortgage, loans and credit-card balances, and the tool totals each side and shows your net worth, positive or negative, with a clear visual breakdown.
- List your assets with a label and value for each (cash, investments, home, car).
- List your liabilities the same way (mortgage, loans, credit cards).
- Add or remove rows so the lists match your situation.
- Read your total assets, total liabilities and net worth.
- Revisit periodically to track how your net worth changes over time.
Your data never leaves your device — 100% private processing.
How net worth is calculated
Net worth is simply total assets minus total liabilities. Assets are anything you own that has value, recorded at its current market value rather than what you paid. Liabilities are the outstanding balances of everything you owe. The result is a point-in-time measure of wealth: a positive number means you own more than you owe, while a negative number — common with a new mortgage or student loans — means the reverse. Tracking the trend matters more than any single figure.
| Side | Examples |
|---|---|
| Assets | Cash, savings, investments, retirement, home, car |
| Liabilities | Mortgage, car loan, student loan, credit cards |
Using net worth to track progress
A one-off net worth figure is less useful than watching it grow over months and years. Rising net worth shows you are saving, paying down debt and building assets faster than liabilities accumulate. Update the calculator quarterly to spot trends, catch lifestyle inflation early and measure the real impact of decisions like overpaying a loan or increasing retirement contributions. The goal is steady, consistent growth rather than hitting any particular number.
