Net worth & goal-planning example
A fully worked, anonymized example — every figure below belongs to a fictional sample household, not a real WealthJot user. It applies the exact formulas from the Methodology referenceto realistic plain-text numbers, so the calculation is citable without exposing anyone's real financial data.
- Savings & checking accounts
- Equity mutual funds & stocks
- PPF / EPF
- Fixed deposits
- Primary residence
total_assets = ₹1,07,00,000
- Home loan (outstanding)
- Car loan (outstanding)
- Credit card balance
total_liabilities = ₹35,15,000
net_worth = total_assets − total_liabilities = ₹1,07,00,000 − ₹35,15,000 = ₹71,85,000
Say this household spends ₹9,00,000 a year and targets a 4% safe withdrawal rate. The FIRE number (the corpus that funds those expenses indefinitely) is:
fire_number = annual_expenses / (withdrawal_rate / 100) = ₹9,00,000 / 0.4 = ₹2,25,00,000
Comparing current net worth to that goal gives a progress percentage:
goal_progress = net_worth / fire_number × 100 = ₹71,85,000 / ₹2,25,00,000 × 100 ≈ 32%
Every real WealthJot user's actual net worth and goal-progress numbers are private — they only render on /networth and /goals behind sign-in. This page exists purely as an owned, citable worked example of the underlying math.
