January 2020 Net Worth

All figures except my Jeep value are generated from Mint.com.

Well damn...The month of January was rocking along with the markets hitting new highs and then BAM!!! The last day of the month saw a 600 point drop in the DJIA and all of a sudden the market was flat for the month. I was really hoping to hit another new record high in my net worth.

Oh well, there is always next month.

My portfolio basically was flat with a small 3k decline due to writing down my Jeep and accounting for regular living expenses.

Oddly my 401k balance was actually 2k. Maybe the S&P registered a slight gain along with a gain in my bond component (65/35 S&P/bonds). 

I'm closing in my 2 Year FIRE Anniversary and it feels good seeing a gain in net worth. It shouldn't be surprising, but short term volatility can bounce things around for sure.

It's pretty wildly known that the markets typically gain 9%/year and that's what I'm counting on to maintain a slow growing net worth. However my first two years were -7% and +31%. It all works out over time, but it does get rocky sometimes. I'm sure the election year will be calm 😁

I hope everyone else had a great January!!
