I was just thinking this morning that we need to increase net worth by $3,000 each month now just to compensate for inflation.
The Australian Dollar was pretty stable this month. The MSCI World Index rose 1.00%, the S&P 500, 0.74%, and the ASX200 1.77%. We gained 0.89% in US Dollar terms or 0.80% in Australian Dollar terms. So we beat the world markets but not the Australian stock market. Net worth rose $15k to $1.163 million in Australian Dollars or $US15k to $US1.080 million. The monthly accounts (in AUD now) follow:
Other
income is income not from investments or retirement contributions. It
was normal this month at $13.5k. Spending was very high this month at $9.8k
but after adjustments it was an average $5.8k. We saved only
$3.7k from regular income.
We gained $9.2k on investments. The asset class that did best this month was real estate and the worst private equity.
