Your net worth is all of your assets minus your liabilities. Select yours.

Why do you have $0-25k and 25k-0? You also listed 25k-50k and 50k-100k twice.
Why do you list less than 100k and then list four ranges of less than 100k?

Maybe I'm just confused.

Look at the minuses. OP is leaving room for those with a negative networth.

OP, what are you trying to capture with this poll? You'll get a good idea of the net worth of people on CD, but that's about it.

I'm going to have a higher net worth than someone who is is 20 but a lower net worth than someone who is 60, generally speaking. We might end up with a distribution of retired people with paid off homes near the top and college students near with student loans or their first home near the bottom.

Yup.. and the people on CD (specifically in this forum) are not a good representation of the typical.

Much more than the poll has choices for.

Just my drilling equipment is over two million.........not counting land and buildings.

It is all paid for with cash.

Hubby has about a million is hunting and fishing gear..........all paid for.

From what I remember you will get out of school without a lot of debt.........that is great.

To do it all over maybe I would have tried harder and went to school........but, I do not think I could have

made more money.

What is in the hunting and fishing gear?

A professional bass fisherman probably has $100K counting his boat + tackle. Multiple boats?

Lots of hunters have many guns, but it seems hard to imagine hundreds of thousands.
