Teen Money Canada

I never really planned on doing anything like this, but I thought that since Teen Money Canada is having a bit of a fresh start with a new website, I might as well start doing something new. In addition to this, I’ve always been curious as to what my real ‘net worth’ is, so this is a reasonable excuse for me to calculate it. Hopefully some of you will find it interesting.

Assets:

• PC Financial Savings Account: $2584.60
• PC Financial Chequing Account: $11.56
• Cash: $185 CAD
• One American Fender Stratocaster 60th Anniversary edition guitar — $2100
• One Epiphone Les Paul Slash Edition guitar — $1450
• One Epiphone Acoustic guitar — $300
• One Yamaha Pacifica Electric guitar — $200
• One 15 watt Marshal practice amp — $100
• One 75 watt Line 6 ‘Spider II’ guitar amp — $275
• One Acer Laptop — $450 (computers decrease in price too quickly!)
• iPod Touch 16GB — $250
• LG Chocolate Flip — $75
• Other relatively random items, including trading card collections (some relatively rare ones), various models, some old unopen lego sets that I bought as collectors items several years ago, and other misc. things — $400

TOTAL NETWORTH = $8481

I was genuinely surprised when I read the final total — I knew that I was worth well over $5000, but didn’t know that my networth was so close to $10 000 (it’ll hopefully be there a short time after Christmas). I’ll likely do an update on the first of every month, recounting the changes over the prior thirty days. This will obviously start on January first, as I did this month’s calculations early.

Hopefully you enjoyed this article, and maybe gained some (inspiration?) from it.

Until next time,

Austen.
