3 Awesome Net Worth Tracking Tips

1. Track Your Net Worth Offline
What I am telling you today are my own experiences. I am tracking my net worth through writing. I have a form and I just filled out the form every quarter (every 3 months). You can do your own form and include the following;

Previous Net Worth:
Net Worth to Date:
Net Worth Increase:
Net Worth Tracked Date:

3. Let Your Loved Ones Know Your Net Worth
Me and my husband are talking about what’s going on to our finances, and we discuss the assets we have such as stocks, mutual funds, trust funds, house and lot, car, and even insurances. You should also discuss liabilities such as credit card bills and other debts obligations, but beware on not to focus your discussion on liabilities to apply the law of attraction. Of course you know what law of attraction is all about, right? If you always talk debt you get more debt, if you always talk assets such as your paper assets, your assets and net worth will increase. Simple, talk poverty and poverty will come, talk prosperity and you’ll prosper.
