Calculate Your Net Worth
Kiplinger's Personal Finance
|August 2023
Crunching the numbers on your assets and liabilities can help you maintain your financial security. Find out where you stand
NET WORTH IS THE VALUE of your assets, which is basically everything you own, such as your retirement savings and real estate, minus your liabilities—the total of everything you owe.
Your net worth is a good indicator of your overall financial health, says Diane Avery, a certified financial planner with Avery Financial Services in Atlanta. It’s critical to have this information before you make big financial decisions, she says.
Kiplinger’s net worth calculator at www.kiplinger .com/investing/wealthmanagement/603443/ net-worth-calculator will help you get started. To use it, you’ll need an inventory of your assets and liabilities.
ASSETS
Here’s a list of the most common assets:
Cash. This is the value of your most liquid assets, such as money you have in your checking or savings accounts. You should also include any certificates of deposit and savings bonds.

Focus on Income First
EVERY reader knows I am unfazed at the sacrifice of a percentage point or two of share price or net asset value to secure a higher yield or cash distribution. That underscores my reverence for short-term high-yield bonds, packaged car leases and credit card bills, floating-rate corporate bank loans, and the many multisector and flexible exchange-traded and closed-end funds that own these assets or some of each. These investments reliably distribute upward of 5% and sometimes 7%. Add funds or ETFs that write options on stocks or stock indexes to pay out 8% or more, and you might easily overlook how the Federal Reserve has slashed the interest rate it controls to 3.5%—the low since September 2022—with further cuts to follow this year.

Longevity Advice for Women
IN recent columns, I have written about longevity literacy and the need for long-term-care planning (see “Living in Retirement,” Dec. 2025 and Feb. 2026). To see how women fit into this picture, I interviewed Maddy Dychtwald, cofounder of AgeWave, a research and consulting firm focused on aging, and author of Ageless Aging: A Woman’s Guide to Increasing Healthspan, Brainspan and Lifespan. Dychtwald interviewed dozens of researchers, scientists and physicians for her book, and these are some of her key takeaways.
