[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't count home equity in our net worth, though obviously the definition of net worth would include all assets. I also don't count our kids' 529s. Or, for that matter, the $30,000 or so in our bank accounts. I really only count our investments, both taxable and non-taxable. We don't plan to move somewhere lower-cost when we retire, so if we don't want to have to sell our home later, why count it as an asset that we can use in retirement? Obviously, if we had to, we could, but since "net worth" isn't actually a metric that matters for anything, I don't care about making sure that mine is valued as highly as it could be.
