Net worth gauges financial health and gives an idea of an individual’s current financial position. Net worth is the value of all assets, minus the total of all liabilities. In other words, net worth is what you own minus what you owe. Assets include cash and investments, real estate, cars and anything else of value.

Determining net worth is fairly straightforward. The most basic equation is subtracting your liabilities (everything you owe/debts) from your assets (everything you own). The personal net worth is the amount by which your assets exceed any liabilities, and it is an accurate reflection of your financial health.
