December 2024 net worth update

January 2nd, 2025 at 03:35 am

It has been a rollercoaster few months! Lost net worth in October, gained it back and then some in November, then lost some again in December. The net gain to our net worth over the past 3 months? $2,000.

Well, it's better than losing ground. We are still about $60K ahead of where we need to be to stay on CoastFIRE, so it's all good.

Next I'll work on my 2024 wrap-up post!

    I have always wondered why if you are buying other properties have you not paid your friends back?? wouldn't that be a priority it looks like it has been awhile...just curious

    Yep! A small net gain is still better than a net loss!

    mumof2, it's a weird situation...we had a very informal agreement with our friends (who rent the bottom half of the duplex) that we would let them gradually obtain part ownership of the duplex. They helped out in the early days of ownership with a bit of money for the down payment and for some urgent repairs, and we were going to put that toward their portion of the house.

    For various reasons, that plan sort of stalled over the years, so I consider that money they gave us to be a loan. I'm not sure they even do, or if we're still planning on revisiting that co-ownership idea, so I just kind of let it hang out there as a "loan" in case it ever comes up. I would pay them back if we definitively decided we weren't doing the ownership thing.

    One reason I'm in no hurry to settle this one way or the other is we do each other lots of favors. Their rent is basically 2/5ths of the mortgage payment and 2/7ths of the utilities, so it's WAY under the going rate for a 2-bedroom in our neighborhood. But then again, they pretty much gave us their old car (it's in their name but we have primary use of it). We've been friends for decades so there's a lot of gray area in our arrangement. Like I said, they might not even consider that money to be a loan so much as a gift, but to me it could go either way so I keep it classified as a loan.

    I agree, a small gain is better than any loss!
