June 2008 Net Worth Update

by mapgirl on July 1, 2008

Wow. I took a 6.88% drop in June.

The contractor cashed his check and the cash I was hoarding is all gone. The only saving grace is that I got paid at the end of the month and that artificially bumps up my cash holdings.

What shocks me quite a lot is that my retirement accounts are down by a lot. The last 2 market trading days at the end of quarter have been quite a mess with the spot price of oil going up to $140. Que sera sera. The best thing to do now is to keep on saving and wait till the market rebounds and experience the market rise.
