Well, just like most of you on here, I keep track of my net worth on a monthly basis.
I was expecting my net worth to go down last month. My dh finished up building a house in mid October. Since then, he has not had a steady paycheck so I have been taking money out of our savings every month.

I was very pleased to find out that although our emergency fund has gone down, our mutual funds have gone up, so our net worth has increased. I don't know how long this will last, but I am happy so far.

I thought I would be real nervous about going so long without a paycheck, but it makes me feel much better to have a large savings account. We are also building a spec house with our savings. Work has been real slow because of all this freezing weather we have had in December! We hope to start framing on the house this week.

I had a no use gas day yesterday, so I will add $2 to my new 2011 challenge.

Prev. total $50.00
today 2.00
new total $52.00
