Net Worth Update August 2016: $4018
If ever there was an argument for saving early and often, our changes in net worth over the past three months alone represent the sheer power of compounding interest.
June 2016: We were at minus $4,328!
July 2016: We came out of the red to the tune of $619
August 2016: We’re now $4018 positive!
