Today is March 24, 2024. Although passive income through dividends and option premiums is my focus when it comes to investing, I decide to do a post about my current net worth.
What is net worth? Simply put, net worth is calculated by adding up all assets and subtracting the total of all liabilities. Net worth is sometimes referred to as shareholder's equity. Assets and liabilities are part of the balance sheet.
Assets
Savings
The savings section is currently into 3 segments. The 3 parts are a "high" interest savings account, savings account, and an "investment" savings account.
The TFSA savings account was with Tangerine. I was frustrated with getting such a low interest rate with Tangerine. I took the money out and placed it in non-registered high interest rate savings account with EQ Bank. Unfortunately, the account did not disappear as interest was earned in the TFSA with Tangerine for the month I transferred the balance. The balance is $0.18. With a value this low, I do not even earn interest as the balance so low.
On December 24, 2023, the value of the savings account with EQ Bank is $8964.08 . As of the time of this writing, the interest rate for EQ Bank is currently sitting at 2.50%. The interest rate is the same as 3 months ago.
