Net worth check in
Been waiting to do this for when all my bonuses and chit came through. Luckily my non-retirement investments also popped off to inflate the numbers even more. Feel free to use my template, or something else. Use the following link to calculate your net worth percentile by age, making sure that the "Primary Home" section has "County Equity" selected. Even if you're a rentcel like me, only fair to compare total equity of the population.https://dqydj.com/net-worth-by-age-calculator/
Age: 28
Non-retirement investment accounts: $120k (roughly $25k is gonna be subject to long term capital gains taxes eventually)
Checking: $18.5k
Retirement accounts: $92k (roth, fully vested)
Equity: $15k (got a paid off modern low mileage car, am a rentcel so zero house equity)
Debts: $0
Total Net worth: $245k
Net worth percentile by age range in USA: top 15%
In my area, you can get nice houses for $400k-500k. Was considering becoming a home owner this year, but interest rates are still so bad I'd rather wait another year and have even more cash on hand.

What if house prices increase as rate cuts approach, and then you'll be minus a year of rent and minus a year of equity building and still maybe be paying more on the mortgage

This is thinking too short-term, real estate can lead to all sorts of good things over the long term and starting early is better there too. I bought my first house when I was 30ish, then upgraded in 2022 and turned that first house into a rental that is now bringing in $30k/year by itself on top of the equity already in it.
Lots of stock market euphoria out there right now, which means it’s probably prudent to do the hard thing and diverge from it

Net worth like that at 28 is higher than 15% nation wide, might be top 5%, srs. Graham Stephen on youtube just did a video breaking it down by age and recent surveys.
