Know your net worth in five minutes

Also available in: Español

On this page

Your net worth is what you own minus what you owe. It is the one number that tells you whether your finances are moving in the right direction, and it is easier to calculate than it sounds.

Add your accounts

Create one account for each place where you keep money: your checking account, savings, cash or a brokerage account. If you already know today’s balance, enter it as a dated balance and Quentas will take it as the starting point.

Add investments and debts

Register your investments with their ticker so their value follows the market, and add any loan or debt with the amount you still owe. Debts subtract from your net worth; investments add to it.

Check it every month

Once everything is in place, the dashboard shows your net worth and how it has changed over time. A monthly look is enough to spot trends early and celebrate progress.
