Your net worth is one number. There are four others.
Adding it all up is the easy part. What matters is how much of it you could
actually reach in a month, how much of it is working for you, and how long it would carry you
if the income stopped. Fill in what applies. Leave the rest at zero.
Assets — what you ownKES
Liquid — you could reach this within about a month
Illiquid — real, but it takes time or costs you to get at

If you run your own business, put in what your stake is worth — roughly what someone
would pay you for it today, or the business's own assets less its own debts. Do not list its
vehicles, stock or loans here; a business keeps its own balance sheet and mixing the two stops
either from being true. If the business owes you money, that belongs under money others
owe you. If you personally guaranteed a business loan, put it in the guarantee box below
rather than in your liabilities.

02What you could actually reach in a month
A plot in Kitengela and a car are real wealth, but neither pays a hospital bill on
Friday. This is the part of your net worth that could become cash quickly, with your short-term
debts taken off it.

03How much of it is working for you
Some of what you own earns a return. Some of it just sits there, and some of it
loses value while you sleep. Both count as net worth. Only one builds it.

04How long you would last
If the income stopped tomorrow and nothing else changed, this is how long your
liquid money would keep the household running.

05What you have promised on someone else's behalf
Guaranteeing a loan is not a favour, it is a debt with someone else's
name on the front. It appears on no balance sheet until the day the borrower stops paying.

06The number behind the number
Net worth is a photograph, not a film. What decides your future is which
direction it is moving, and whether it would survive an event.
A balance sheet is not a plan
Net worth tells you where you stand. It says nothing about what happens next.
It does not tell you whether your family keeps this if you are not here, whether an illness
would force you to sell the plot, or whether what you own will still be worth something in
twenty years. Those are the questions worth an hour of somebody's time.
Nothing you type leaves this page. The figures stay
on your own device and are not stored or sent anywhere. This is a general guide based on what you
entered today, not personal financial advice, and it does not take account of your full
circumstances. Values for property, vehicles and business equity are your own estimates; a real
valuation may differ considerably.
