What is the meaning of net worth?

I have heard this statement may times. As a 27 year old how do I actually calculate my net worth?

Net worth = Current Assets (investments like real estate, bonds, stocks, cash etc) - debts (loans). It is better to exclude your primary house while calculating as you won't sell it.

Why not. Sell it and live on rent. Asset is something where you have spent money and can be sold at a higher return. Primary residence is included.

It can be included but i personally feel, no. It can be done if the home is bought with an intention to sell and there is a clear visibility of the sell date to include the expected price. If it is bought for self use (especially on loan), it doesn't make sense to include it.

Assets (cash, investments, property) - liabilities (loans)

Assets include everything you can sell to get money, so it won't include things like your residential home, your car etc. It does include your real estates, equity, gold, cash, bank balance etc. Deduct any debt you have like loans from it and you have your net worth.

Just like businesses, individuals can also create their own balance sheets. Almost all of the CA in my network maintains their own. If you want accurate calculations, get it done from a CA.

If you're looking for a ballpark figure, add up the value of all the assets that you have, deduct any liabilities (such as loans)

You can use tools like Kuvera, where you can aggregate all you data at a single place and then view it.
