I had about $4500 increase in assets for this month. Besides regular saving from my full-time job income, I had a big chunk of tax return from the government as well, which makes me almost forget about the loss of $1500 that I need to take in my RRSP account where I changed my short-long position ratio to be roughly even, because the market does seem to start turning in this month. Unlike my trading account, I usually keep my investment in RRSP for at least 3 months before I make any changes.
In general, I did pretty well in this month considering over 6% growth in the net worth from last month.
Here are the assets/liabilities result for the third month of 2009:
Assets
Vehicles: $6,500
Cash: $5,600
Savings: $27,200
TFSA: $5,000

Total Net Worth: $77,100 (+6.05%)

My net worth goal at the end of year 2009 is $90,000, and I still have $12,900 to make in the next 3 quarters.
