Learn More »The average American has $90,460 of debt, but the average net worth is $748,800. Of course, averages can be skewed by extremes on both ends of the net worth spectrum. With many feeling the economic squeeze during the pandemic and resulting recession (not to mention the growing wealth gap), most people don't have this kind of cash in their savings and investment accounts. Don't miss: The best credit cards for building credit However, it's still important to know your net worth so you can plan ahead for a healthy retirement and stay on top of your debt payoff and everyday budget. Net worth — or the total amount of assets you have in your name, minus any debts — tends to increase with age. Higher earnings bring more opportunities to buy property and other assets that can grow in value over time and help people build wealth. But there are other facts that impact net worth, like income level, employment status, cost of living and financial inheritances. According to the Fed, the median net worth for people between ages 35 and 44 is $91,300. The average is $436,200. (Economists say that looking at the median is a better indicator of where most Americans fall on the net worth spectrum.) Here's a breakdown of both median and average American net worth by age, according to the Fed's latest Survey of Consumer Finances from 2019.

Learn More »Next, switch from shorter-term planning to longer-term thinking. If you've been making minimum payments on your debts, crunch the numbers to see whether you can afford to pay it down faster. Calculate how much you'd save over time in interest, and how much your net worth would grow if you did. It makes sense to be aggressive with debt repayment when you've got a high interest rate, and/or you're not earning you any kind of equity or profit in return (like when you have a mortgage on a home that's appreciating in value). Some financial experts argue that it's OK to take your time with low-interest debt under 5% APR, but you should consider doubling-down on high-interest debt that costs you more when you carry a balance. You might crunch the numbers and realize that, before you can get serious about building wealth, you need to increase your income. If that's the case, think about negotiating for a raise, starting side hustle or finding ways to bring in passive income through investing or real estate so that you have a little more discretionary income to work with. You may not build up to your dream net worth overnight, but with some planning you can make incremental progress that, over time, adds up.
