January 2013 Net Worth – $294,040.85

January 2013 Net Worth
A strong start to 2013, which is good because I’ve given myself some lofty goals. As you may have noticed, I’ve started to invest some money in Lending Club. Although it’s too early to make any claims, for me it’s been an enjoyable way to “be the bank” and invest some additional funds. And, I believe it has real potential. I’ll include my Lending Club stats in my monthly net worth updates so those of you that are interested can see how it works out. Here’s how things look at the end of January:

  1. Clint,
    How does your roth IRA grow so quickly. $5000.00 in one month is amazing. I barely do 10% of that. Not entirely from lack of money or deposits, but I thought there was a maximum amount that could be deposited???

    Please comment, Inquiring minds would like to know…

  2. Ryan – In January I made a $2,000 deposit into my Roth IRA, and the rest of the gains were due to stock market performance. The two funds contained in my Roth gained 5.15% and 4.34% respectively. A $5,000 gain in one month is certainly outside the norm, and as you’ll soon be able to see, the February results, while still good, return to a more standard number.
