How This Calculator Works
Use this net worth tool for quick estimation, comparison, and planning intent while keeping formula assumptions visible.
Use the net worth calculator to total cash, investments, equity, and other assets, then subtract loans, credit cards, and other debts.
Net worth is the value of everything you own minus everything you owe.
Formula
Net worth = total assets - total liabilities.
