Add up what you own, subtract what you owe, and see your net worth instantly — free, no sign-up.
Enter every asset you own and every debt you owe, then click Calculate Net Worth. The tool adds up your Total Assets (cash, investments, real estate, vehicles), adds up your Total Liabilities (mortgage, auto loans, student loans, credit cards), and subtracts one from the other:
The result appears in green if positive (you own more than you owe) or red if negative (you owe more than you own), along with your debt-to-asset ratio — the percentage of your assets that are financed by debt.
Here is how your result compares to national figures. Data is approximate, based on the Federal Reserve's Survey of Consumer Finances, rounded for readability — use it as a rough benchmark, not a target.
| Age Group | Median Net Worth | Average Net Worth |
|---|---|---|
| Under 35 | $39,000 | $183,000 |
| 35–44 | $136,000 | $550,000 |
| 45–54 | $247,000 | $976,000 |
| 55–64 | $365,000 | $1,567,000 |
| 65–74 | $410,000 | $1,795,000 |
| 75+ | $336,000 | $1,625,000 |
Median is the midpoint (half of households are above, half below) and is usually a more realistic benchmark than average, which is skewed upward by a small number of very high-net-worth households.
Income measures cash flow — how much money passes through your hands each year. Net worth measures accumulated wealth — what you actually keep and own after debts. A high earner who spends everything can have a lower net worth than a modest earner who saves consistently. Lenders, financial advisors, and retirement planners all use net worth (not income) as the real measure of financial security, because it reflects your ability to weather a job loss, retire comfortably, or absorb an emergency without going into debt.
Net worth is the total value of everything you own (assets) minus everything you owe (liabilities). It is the single clearest snapshot of your overall financial health, more useful than income alone because it accounts for savings, debt, and accumulated wealth.
Net Worth = Total Assets − Total Liabilities. Assets include cash, investments, retirement accounts, real estate, and vehicles. Liabilities include mortgages, auto loans, student loans, credit cards, and any other debt.
Yes, especially early in adulthood. Student loans, a new mortgage, or a recent car purchase can easily push liabilities above assets. Negative net worth is common under age 35 and typically turns positive as debt is paid down and savings grow.
Assets are anything of monetary value you own: checking and savings account balances, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, 401(k) or IRA balances, the market value of your home, cars, and other valuable property. Personal items with little resale value (furniture, clothing) are usually excluded.
Liabilities are debts you owe: mortgage balance, auto loan balance, student loans, credit card balances, personal loans, and any other outstanding debt. Use the current remaining balance, not the original loan amount.
Yes, most net worth calculations include your home's current market value as an asset and your remaining mortgage balance as a liability. The difference is your home equity, which is a real component of net worth even though it is not immediately spendable.
Most financial planners recommend checking net worth quarterly or at least annually. Tracking the trend over time matters more than any single snapshot — a steadily rising net worth means your financial habits are working.
A common rule of thumb is to have 1x your annual salary saved by 30, 3x by 40, 6x by 50, and 8–10x by retirement age. See the net worth by age table on this page for US median and average figures from the Federal Reserve.
