03.2006 Net Worth [+$8,835.73]

Do any of you look forward to figuring your monthly net worth numbers? I really can't wait to go through and put everything into my spreadsheet and see how things come out. I used to do it randomly, but that makes it a little harder to see how your improving since fluctuations can vary. So here's my net worth for March 2006: Change vs. previous month: $8,835.73 (4.99%) % 2006 Goal Complete: 29.4% % 2030 Goal Complete: 7.4% Some points of interest for this month's net worth update: - Recent Chase 0% offer. This won't affect my final net worth, but $$$ were shifted around. - Bonus received in March. - My big car loan payment hasn't been made yet, mainly because the process of doing the balance transfer has taken about a month. I plan to get that done in April. I also plan to do my major asset re-allocation in April. - I didn't have any major expenses in March. Upcoming expenses: - Taxes! Yuck. (~$2000, Federal and State). - I maybe making an electronics purchase (~$500). - Airline tickets for a wedding. If I'm able to maintain an average growth of $8,000 per month, I'll be able to meet my 2006 goal. I'll definitely need to start considering what stocks, funds, bonds to invest in with my upcoming asset re-allocation.
