What net worth tells you

Net worth — everything you own minus everything you owe — is the single best snapshot of financial health, better than income alone. Watch the trend: a rising number means assets are outpacing debt. The U.S. median is heavily driven by home equity and retirement accounts.

How it’s calculated & sources

Net worth = total assets (cash, investments, home, vehicles, other) − total liabilities (mortgage, loans, cards, other). Compared to median household net worth by age from the Federal Reserve.

Worked example

$480,000 of assets and $285,000 of debt is a $195,000 net worth — below the ~$247k median for ages 45–54, above the ~$135k median for 35–44.

Frequently asked questions

Should I use my home’s market value?

Yes — use current market value for the home and the current payoff balance for the mortgage; the difference is your home equity.

Are retirement accounts included?

Yes — 401(k), IRA and pension balances are assets. They’re a big part of most households’ net worth.

Why is the median so high at older ages?

Decades of paying down mortgages and compounding retirement savings; medians peak around retirement and then draw down.
