This is mine, including taxes but excluding Pillar 2. Probably breaking thru the 500k this month.
Starting from 2014 where I started at 0 after studies. I started to record regularly around 2017 (so just an interpolation between 2014 and 2017). Pillar 2a is not included,
EDIT: does not include investments in our own company as well.
I track my Net Worth since 1991 (LOL)
It’s hard to appreciate the ups and downs before 2012, since the exponentiality of Hooli compensation flattened whatever happened before
Live numbers are here
I wish I kept track that far back!
FYI - I’m not including “Home Equity” as part of my “Net Worth”, as I intend to live in the house, or at least use that sale to buy a different home for us.
78% Bonds? Hardcore…
I know, I’m reassessing my risk tolerance these days
Great chart, wonder what tools you’ve been using.
I track everything monthly since 2014 (will do my start-of-month inventory tomorrow!). but only in CHF since I moved here at the end of 2017. Here is my net worth (incl. Pillar 2 and 3 + overseas equivalents, not accounting for eventual taxes) in my original base currency (I’ll leave it to your imagination, but know that it is not zlotys)…
This includes 2 babies (one of which I had to pay most of the costs for out of pocket), several years of postgraduate studies, lots of travel, a foreign tax nightmare (resolved), and probably a few other things.
Edit: I also have lots of more complex charts that I won’t share, but this is a good simple summary of assets. I have a fixed target for cash, and then investment targets are percentages of what is left over. I also make a distinction between broad equity holdings and more targeted ETFs/stocks…
custom development… maybe I open source it one day.
Is this a Financial Times theme for matplotlib or something like that?

wow, a million in crypto? how do you sleep at night?
What’s your current exposure in Crypto/BTC? Mine is currently more then 50%.
Is this really all in BTC?
If so, what is your reason for not diversifying your Crypto-Assets (e.g. ETH)?
Nice read… I’m a scientist and can definitely say that many in my domain should read this

Seriously though, to amass 1M in crypto is not for the paper handed. I guess s/he has made peace with it a while ago.
diamond hands for sure
As there seems to be some interest, I will give a bit more information.
I discovered Bitcoin in June 2011 while I was bored at work. First bubble, up to 30$ ! I bought the way up and the way down to 5$. Baby roller coaster. I came for the money, stayed for the tech and the possible money. And the drama.
Between 2011 and 2013 I decided to accumulate 100 bitcoins in total. I thought it was enough to be filthy rich if it was a success and not lose too much if it was a failure (3500$ or something).
Having spent not much on it, it was easier not to sell. I kept telling myself that it was worth a few thousands, not hundreds thousands. When it reached 9000$, I set selling points such as 1BTC at 10000, 1BTC at 12000, etc… I sold half of my bitcoins following this plan, in 2017. I continue to follow the plan. I remove the emotional factor as much as I can.
I am nevertheless reconsidering from time to time, because things change and I change. I am now wondering if I will not sell half of the stash in one go.
Alts: I got interested in many of them and bought quite a few. Always with bitcoins so it was like free money. My feathercoins, peercoins, namecoins are not worth much now See below for the ones I really like.
Security: having cryptos is a heavy work. Really. I had to learn a lot. I now have secured the cryptos in a way that should prevent hacking and personal threats. In particular I use multi-sig, one of them by a notary.
If you mean how much of my net worth would disappear shall BTC fail, around 35%.
My other cryptos do not account for much. I personally like ETH, I was part of the ICO and followed since then. If you have to pick one, pick this one. Also Monero: it has proper privacy and tries to be ASIC resistant. BCH: (I don’t want to start a war) that was the vision for Bitcoin in the early days, i.e. to be able to use the currency for transactions and not only as a store of value.
