February saw a rebound in the stock market that provided a nice boost to my geared stock portfolio and also to my SMSF account. In fact this month saw a new high reached in my net worth, however this wasn't too exciting given the previous high was way back in 2007. After adjusting for inflation there is probably no net rise in net worth over the past seven years, which is fairly mediocre considering I am 'saving' about $40,000 each year (via superannuation savings and also indirectly by servicing the interest payments on my geared investment loans). However, considering the size of the hit my net worth took in 2008 it could be much worse!
