If you know your net worth, then you can maintain your expenses and investments in a good way. Yes, whenever you file your income tax return, you get to know how much money you have spent this year and how much money you have earned. If you do not know how much your net worth is, then you cannot guess how much money I should spend. There are many online software where you can keep track of your net worth. Gone are the days when you needed an accountant. Yes, if your business is still big then you will need a CA. But if your business is not very big, then you can manage all this yourself.
List of some online software to mage balance sheet:
Quickbooks is a very good and cheap online software that you can use easily. I have been using Quickbooks for the last 3 years and its customer support is quite good.

If you want to know your net worth, then first you have to know how much money you have got for the whole year. After that how much were spent in your whole year. Depreciation of everything you used such as laptop, computer, furniture etc. By calculating all these, you have whatever money you have left. That is your net worth. Like suppose your one year income is $10k. And 5K is your expenses in it. And there is a 01k depreciation. So your net worth for that year will be 4k.

Everyone should know their net worth. If you do not know your net worth, then you can hire a CA for this. For this you will have to pay some fees to him, but you will get complete information about your net worth. Whenever you have to apply for a loan, it is important to know the net worth. Many times we have to take a big loan if we know our net worth, then we get a loan accordingly.
