April 2008 update
Well April was a nice month. We had lower expenses than usual, due to refinancing our mortgage the previous month. (Our first payment isn’t due until June 1.) We decided to use the money that we would have paid to our mortgage to finish up our windows. It felt very strange not sending any money to our mortgage or our mortgage fund, but we’ll get back on track with that in May.
My liabilities are down very slightly, which is something. My assets are up, due to my tax refund, increasing my monthly investments & savings, and the stock market finally being a tiny bit nice to my old IRA. I also spent quite a bit less this month in general. Here’s hoping I can make this a regular thing.
April’s stats:
Assets: Up $4588.16
Liabilities: Down $328.54
Change in net worth over previous month: Up $4916.70

Well, we have no credit card debt, but it’s going to take us a few years to get our house paid off.
