I know it’s late, but its been a crazy busy summer — hey better late than never, right? So anyways, another month has past and it’s time for another net worth update. Below are July’s numbers:
July, 2015 Net Worth: $77,346 (+$2,424)
I did a little better this month compared to last month. The reason for the increase is has a lot to do with the recovery of my brokerage and retirement accounts. Back in June, the stock market was down which in turn lead to a decrease in both my brokerage and retirement accounts. Luckily, they recovered in July.

Cash
Cash / Savings: $46,580 (+$1,402)
My cash savings is up $1,402. The increase is from money I earned from my job primarily.

I received $14 in dividends in July.

Stocks (Brokerage Account): $22,224 (+$523)
The value of my brokerage account increased by $523. This was due to an increase in the market.

One of these days I’ll go on the treasuries website and update the value of these.

The stock market increased, creating an increase in my IRA account.
