Entering your net worth into a Google Sheet document is not something I would recommend.

[Does so]

I'm not in either category…

Are the Dims offering FREE ice cream yet?

[rigelkentaurus]

Like I would log on to google and “download” one of their spreadsheets and put real numbers in.

[txrefugee]

Who would give Google their financial information? Every Nigerian will know where the most gullible scam targets are.

[DEPcom]

It’s a TRAP. Google is hosting that spreadsheet. Do you want Google to know about your income/assets?

Even if you copy the spreadsheet it is still hosted on Google with all the code. Do you know what is behind the code of the spreadsheet?

Google or Forbes is not your friend. They put that out there to collect data.

Lol! Pretty sure my net worth is negative or pretty close, I have about $50k open in equity on my house but owe $50k in auto loans and credit card debt. Livin’ the dream baby, livin’ the dream!

[z3n]

open google, give income

seems harmless enough /er

[SamAdams76]

Home equity and 401(k) balances are subject to fluctuation so probably not the best indicator of net worth. That happens to be how most people consider themselves millionaires - on paper anyways.

I just missed it. If only I had picked up that penny..

For later

Don’t know about my percentile. But I have enough of this world’s goods.

More importantly, I’m born again and have Jesus Christ in my heart and life. I wish there were more Americans who knew the Lord as Savior.

Folks - “You need to log into your Google account” to use the calculator.

So ... if you want Google to keep track of what you put in and associate it with your account info ... and share it with ... whomever it wants ... well, go right ahead ...

... as for me ... I don’t think so!!

[minnesota_bound]

I use to be in the 1% but then I met a women.... : )

And I didn't’t even have to build it.

A million dollars to retire on today is not that much. Better hope you have a good pension plan and SS to offset.

If you retire at 65 it may not get you to age 90 especially if there is another 2008 style downturn or two.

Our fixed yearly cost right off the bat is almost $50k a year-high property tax, almost $20k for health insurance, utilities, food, maintenance, house and car insurances etc and we have zero debt. The 20k health insurance cost will drop when we go on Medicare.

[Reeses]

It's not wealth that makes people happy, but relative wealth to their neighbors. What that characteristic of happiness really proves is that happiness is a choice.

Forbes readers are always comparing themselves to others. They are probably advertiser gold, easily triggered to buy something ridiculous they don't need.
