Questions

How do I calculate my net worth?

Add up what you own — cash, bank balances, investments at today’s value and other assets — and subtract what you owe: loans, credit card dues and money borrowed from people.

What is a good net worth by age in India?

A common yardstick is your yearly income × (age ÷ 10). More useful is whether it grows every year — track the change, not a single number.

Should I include my house in net worth?

You can. It is an asset, but you cannot spend it without selling it, so many people track net worth both with and without their home.

How often should I check my net worth?

Monthly is enough. Spendly shows the change since last month on Home.
