What is net worth? Net worth is what you own minus what you owe. In other words, the total value of your assets minus your liabilities equals your net worth. Look at it this way: If you own a home worth $300,000 and you owe $100,000 on it, you have $200,000 in equity toward your net worth. To calculate your total net worth, add up all the things you own and subtract all the things that you oweâthatâs your net worth.
