I have updated my net worth over at Net Worth IQ. It grew by an impressive 6% over the course of December, fueled mainly by a Christmas bonus and and extra paycheck that had a little extra on it. My 401(k) has finally moved to its new provider and the numbers there no longer represent an estimate. Right now my 401(k) has less money in it than I have put in, which only kind of stinks. I figure that the loss of about 8% isn’t that big of a deal on the measly $1,200 that I have in this account right now. There may also be an alarming phenomena on the report that no-debt junkies may jump down my throat with jackboots on for - it looks like we have $1,200 dollars in debt. Not really so. I just included the balance on our credit card, which we have the money to pay off in full by the due date. I just have it here in the spirit of full disclosure.
