Wow ... Net Worth, etc.

May 28th, 2013 at 09:15 pm

So yesterday I had my babysitting job. It went well - about 5 hours for $40. It was worth more than the cash to me though - I really enjoy taking care of the girls. Of course, by the time I got home and got something to eat, it was just about time for my Monday phone date with NE. Smile So I didn't get much done on Monday other than a walk with my co-workers, babysitting gig and a 5 hour phone date. Not that I'm complaining. At all. Big Grin

After another walk with my co-workers this morning, I decided that instead of going into town and spending money (which I'd been contemplating) that I'd sit down with YNAB and do a fresh start and see where I'm at money wise.

In November after buying my car, my Net Worth was around $48k. Today, mostly thanks to one particular stock (hit $110 today!!) my NW is grasping at $95k!! That number is seriously hard for me to comprehend that I've actually got that kind of money available to me. (Of the individual stock I own, approximately 90% of them were inherited. So, unless they drop down to $30/share, I'm not messing with them.)

Tomorrow I need to start preparing for summer school in earnest. It starts on Monday.

Good friend/co-worker is leaving on Saturday. Frown A couple of us are taking her out to eat Thursday night (3rd payday of the month - dinner out is being timed for the payday ... my 3rd payday will mostly be going into savings - such a different mindset.) She has a possible job offer in the area she'd like to relocate to, so that is good news. I'm still really sad to see her go though.

(I had a lot more to this post, but had to restart it due to a browser hiccup before I had a chance to save ...)

    I know! It's kind of scary. According to my uncle though who got our whole family pretty much involved with this one stock ... this is nothing compared to what is to come. So far, he;s been pretty right. Only time will tell.

    Nice net worth!! So still a good idea to invest in said stock according to your uncle? Interesting.

    Thanks CCF. Yep, he would say that NOW is the time. He believes that it will go up to 150 and start splitting and splitting and splitting .... He was using words like "millionaire" in reference to me with the number of shares I have .. GULP (As Thrifty Ray can tell you, you *don't* want to get him talking about this stock. My grandma put him on the phone a few weeks ago when I called her, and he talked nearly non-stop for 90 minutes.)

    Think of electric cars in the stock news lately. Smile Especially a company that just paid it's loan back to the government.
