# Net Worth

> See your complete financial picture — assets, liabilities, and how your net worth changes over time.

## Overview

Your [net worth](https://app.treasury.sh/networth) is on the navigation bar. It pulls every account you've connected or added into one number — what you own minus what you owe — and tracks how it changes over time. It's the single best measure of whether you're moving in the right direction.

## What you can do here

* See your **net worth** and how it's trending over any period (1W to all-time).
* Break down your **assets** vs **liabilities** at a glance.
* Spot high **credit utilization** and the cards worth paying down first.
* Review every account, grouped by type, with **largest assets** surfaced.
* Add what doesn't sync — a home, a car, cash — so the number is *complete*.

## Track your net worth over time

The headline number sits above a trend chart you can view over **1W**, **1M**, **3M**, **YTD**, **1Y**, or **ALL**. Switch periods to see the short-term wiggles or the long-term climb — the year-over-year view is the one that tells you whether you're really making progress.

<Tip>
  Don't react to the daily number. Markets and balances bounce around day to day; what matters is the direction of the **1Y** or **ALL** line. Up and to the right over months is the goal.
</Tip>

## Understand assets vs liabilities

Treasury sorts every account into assets or liabilities based on its type, then nets them together:

| Account type                 | Counts as | Examples                          |
| :--------------------------- | :-------- | :-------------------------------- |
| **Depository**               | Asset     | Checking, savings, cash           |
| **Investment**               | Asset     | Brokerage, 401(k), IRA, crypto    |
| **Other** (positive balance) | Asset     | Home, car, valuables              |
| **Credit**                   | Liability | Credit cards                      |
| **Loan**                     | Liability | Mortgage, student loan, auto loan |

Accounts are listed grouped by type, and the **Largest Assets** card highlights what's doing the heavy lifting.

## Credit utilization

The **Credit Utilization** card shows how much of your available credit you're using across your cards — a major factor in your credit score — and flags the cards **worth paying down** first.

<Note>
  Charge cards and cards without a preset limit can't have a meaningful utilization percentage, so they appear under **Not included**. If a card is missing its limit, use **+ Limit** to set one so it's counted correctly.
</Note>

## Keep your picture complete

Your net worth is only as honest as the accounts behind it. Two ways accounts get here:

* **Connected accounts** — banks and cards linked through [Connections](/core/connections); balances sync automatically.
* **Manual accounts** — anything that doesn't connect (a home, a car, cash, an unsupported institution) added via [Manual Accounts](/core/manual-accounts).

Use **Manage Accounts** (top right) to add, reconnect, or remove accounts, and **History** to see every recorded snapshot.

## Tips & best practices

* **Add your big assets.** A home or paid-off car is often someone's largest asset — add it as a [manual account](/core/manual-accounts) so your net worth reflects reality, not just your bank balances.
* **Watch utilization, not just balances.** Keeping credit utilization low protects your score; the utilization card tells you exactly which card to pay down first.
* **Reconnect promptly.** A disconnected bank freezes its balance and skews your total — reconnect from **Manage Accounts** when prompted.
* **Check monthly, not daily.** Make the 1Y view a once-a-month ritual.

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Why is my net worth different from my bank balance?">
    Your bank balance is one account. Net worth combines *all* of them — every cash, investment, and asset account, minus every credit card and loan — into a single number.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="My net worth went down — did I lose money?">
    Not necessarily. It moves when investment balances change with the market, when a credit-card balance goes up, or when an account hasn't synced recently. Look at the trend over months rather than a single day, and check that all accounts are connected and up to date.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How do I add my house or car?">
    Add them as [manual accounts](/core/manual-accounts) with type **Other** and their estimated value. They'll count toward your assets, and you can update the value any time.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="My net worth chart is empty or short.">
    History builds as Treasury records snapshots over time, so a brand-new account starts with little history. Give it a few days and your trend line will fill in.
  </Accordion>
