networth (usd) poll

[shalab]

Since SP500 has gained about 20% and our board members have beaten this number by a handy margin, looking a huge growth in net worth across the board.

 

The cnbc report said U.S minted 1.682 million out of the new 1.841 million millionaires generated world wide. ( 90% )

better if we can do a poll on age vs networth

I'd be interested to see that. Can a poll thread be made that has more than 1 poll question? I'd break down the net-worth question into different age brackets but I don't want to do it by making 5+ threads.

You can do it in the same poll...

1mm and under 25

1mm and 25-40

1mm and 40-50

Etc

[JBird]

Right, that just doesn't create a normal distribution curve.

I'm 25 and definitely way less than 500k... ;D

I was just discussing such things over the weekend with a friend, explaining the concept of stock vs. flow. We are both mid-20's, I have plenty of debt from grad school, while she has none due to help from the parents and working during school (I played a sport, made working impossible during undergrad). Anyway, I out-earn her by a decent margin, but she has a positive net worth while mine is negative. She argues I am better off (earnings power), while I say maybe her ("book value"). Just thought it was interesting to discuss.

Lot of rich people we have here.  :)

I absolutely had a negative net worth at age 25.  I bought my first house at age 24, so I had a 6 figure mortgage + high 5 figure student loans and a low 5 figure car loan.  I had a descent job, but just starting to invest.

Im 25-40 (much closer to 25) and have way less than 1 million, but could be there soon with the way these markets are moving.

I turned 28 this year. Last year my investable assets finally surpassed my loans from grad school, but...

 

Then I got married to a medical student  :(

I woke up this morning and FELT like a million bucks!

 

Does that count?  ;D

 

Cheers!
