Net Worth by Age (Compared to Peers)

See how your net worth compares to your peers.

We did the math. How are you doing relative to your peers? The MOST common financial question people ask, no matter where they are in their financial journey, is if they are on track. Sure, you may wonder about how to save more money, retire early, or invest smarter…but it all leads back to the quintessential question about whether or not you are where you need to be, right now, to reach your financial goals. Without benchmarks, you’re probably guessing. With them, you know where you stand and what tier of wealth you’re pursuing.

• What should my net worth be at my age?
• Am I on track compared to people my age?
• What’s my assumed rate of return at age 20?
