You’ll want to gather bank statements, investment records, real estate deeds, and any outstanding loan or credit card balances.

This data will be the foundation of your net worth calculation.

Step 2: List Your Assets

Once you’ve collected all of the appropriate figures, you want to make a list of your assets. So grab a notebook or use an excel spreadsheet, and list out all of your assets.

Here are a few examples of your assets: savings accounts, investments, real estate, vehicles, and any highly valuable possessions. Don’t worry about listing out little things that don’t add much to your bottom line.

Once you have your list, assign each a value based on current market estimates.

Step 3: Tally Your Liabilities

Next, list your liabilities. This list should include things like your remaining mortgages, any student loans or credit card debt.

You’re liabilities are basically anything you’re still paying money one, or any other outstanding loans. Once you have your completed list, just add up the total amount owed.

This will become your total liabilities.

Step 4: Subtract Liabilities from Assets

Once you have your list of assets tallied or totaled and your list of liabilities listed and totaled as well, you can move on to this next step. All you’ll do here is some simple math.

Simply subtract your total liabilities from your total assets. The end result will be your personal net worth.

Here is a great net worth calculator that you can use if you don’t have excel. It’s simple, and it’ll give your your bottom-line numbers.

Having this number in hand is like having a snapshot of your financial position. It’s from here that everything you do to grow your wealth will be based off of.

Step 5: Analyze and Reflect

So, the first thing you’ll want to do is analyze your net worth and reflect on it. Take some time thinking about why it’s as large or small as it is.

Know that a positive value means your assets exceed your debts, which is a great thing. and that a negative value indicates that your debts outweigh your assets, signaling that in you’re in debt, and that there’s much room for improvement.

Step 6: Set Goals

With your net worth in hand, now you can set financial goals. It doesn’t matter if it’s paying off debt, increasing investments, or saving for a major purchase, now that you have your net worth figured out, you have a baseline to track progress.

So set some goals, and outline the activity you’ll take to ensure those financial goals are met. If you want the number to grow fast and by a lot, well you need to think big and plan for massive action.

If the goals are modest, well, plan your actions accordingly.

Step 7: Schedule Regular Check-ins

To grow your net worth, you’ll want to keep it top of mind. And the best way to do this is to conduct regular check-ins with your net worth.

Basically, you’ll want to make the recalculation of your net worth a routine Some experts suggest updating it quarterly or annually to monitor your financial growth. However, we recommend recalculating it every month.

The more you’re thinking about your net worth, the more you’ll be thinking and taking action on how to grow it. There’s no doubt that as as you make these positive changes, and start tracking your net worth regularly, it will begin to grow.

Step 8: Seek Improvement

If your net worth is not where you’d like it to be, there’s no need to worry. Use your neew financial benchmark and knowledge to drive change.

Focus on paying down your debts, increasing your savings, making wise investments. In addition to this, consider ways you can increase your income; whether it be via a side hustle or by hustling to get that new promotion.

If you seek to improve yourself and your finances, you’re net worth will improve as a result.

Step 9: Seek Professional Help

That said, if you’re net worth is in the negative, or if your new financial goals seem to be out of reach, consider seeking professional help. It’s never a bad idea to reach out to a financial advisor, especially if your finances are complex or in a tough spot.

Financial advisors, experts, and coaches, can provide tailored guidance to optimize financial situation. They can get you and your mindset properly aligned with your net worth goals.

So, if you’re financial health is struggling, don’t hesitate to seek professional financial help.

Step 10: Celebrate Your Financial Milestones

Lastly, you’ll want to celebrate your financial milestones along the way. Every time your net worth increases, make a big deal out of it.

If you’re working with your spouse to grow your net worth, get those high-fives going. Especially when you see positive change. If you’re doing it on your own, celebrate your monthly or quarterly wins with a treat.

Of course, there will be down months. But, try to always look on the bright side. For example, if your assets are down, give yourself a pep talk about how the markets cyclical, and that you’ll be back up next month. Or, just commit to doubling down to make it positive next month.

Celebrate often, and think positively about the growth of your fortune. Your net worth journey is an ongoing saga of progress and empowerment. And, it should be fun.

Noah Kagan is a highly successful entrepreneur, YouTuber, author, and multimillionaire. He’s the founder and CEO of AppSumo, and he’s also launched over 25 other businesses. Needless to say, he believes in entrepreneurship and spends much of his time encouraging people to launch their own businesses.

That said, Noah’s business acumen and his hard-won entrepreneurial expertise has helped him amass an impressive fortune. So, if you’re looking to learn exactly how much he’s worth, then you’ll enjoy this Noah Kagan net worth profile. If you’re ready to dive into the nitty gritty let’s get started:

What Is Noah Kagan’s Net Worth?

Many sources across the web have estimated Noah Kagan’s net worth at varying and implausible amounts. Not only are the figures we came across inconsistent, but they are also inaccurate.

So, we conducted our own research and here is what we came up with. First things first, Noah Kagan has self-disclosed that he holds at least $25 million in just liquid assets alone. _^[1]

He also owns 60% of his primary money-making business, AppSumo (the highly popular digital marketing place for entrepreneurs), which brings in roughly $120 million in revenue per year. The average multiple for a digital business is around 4x their annual profit (which we estimate to be at around $100 million.)_^[2]

This means Noah Kagan’s equity from AppSumo is approximately $240 million ($100 million x 4 (x 60%). Therefore, according to our research and analysis which takes into account appreciation and inflation of both his cash positions, investments, and business equity, we place Noah Kagan’s net worth as of 2025 at approximately $270 million.

How Much Does Noah Kagan Make Per Year?

Certainly, Noah’s current net worth begs the question with regards to how much he makes per month or year?

Well, just last year Noah shared that his base take home salary is around $175K per year. But through an ingenious profit distribution model he learned from Amazon, he technically makes over $1 million per year._^[3]

That said, he also makes a good chunk of change from his YouTube videos. Over the past year, his newly released videos pulled in approximately 18.5 million views, and his older videos have pulled in heaps of views as well. As such, he earns approximately $110K to $130K per year just from YouTube ad revenue alone.

That said, Kagan’s net worth has earning power too. And a good unwritten rule as a minimum yield for safe investments has been between the 3% to 5% range annually. So, at 4% of his liquid net worth ($25 million), he could easily earn him an additional $1 million per year.

As such, our total estimate for how much Noah Kagan makes per year is approximately $2.13 million. And when he cashes out the equity in his businesses, he’ll likely be able to 5x this figure.

How Did Noah Kagan Get Rich?

Noah started dabbling with online businesses while still in college. He created a handful of websites and businesses that that were geared towards helping students solve their problems (like creating a Craigslist for college kids, a book exchange platform for students, etc…).

Noah then jumped into the tech industry early on just after college. He got his start with Intel, where he worked as a Geography Marketing Analyst.

While at Intel he launched his own consulting business, known as HFG Consulting, and also started CommunityNext.com. His experience with online businesses helped him land a job at Facebook, where he was employee #30.

After Facebook he moved on to help a personal finance company to grow its userbase. The company was Mint and would eventually get acquired by Intuit. Noah decided to launch his own business after his experience with Mint, so he kick-started Gambit.

With Gambit , he started out making games at first, but then he transformed it into company that would be used to make payments easier for virtual games.

After nearly three years of building up Gambit, he eventually started making decent money (paying himself roughly $360K per year). Unfortunately, his business was banned by Facebook, and his biggest competitor tried to sue him. So he walked away from the business.

AppSumo was launched soon after in 2010 as a digital marketing place for entrepreneurs. Since its inception, Kagan has managed to grow the company by leaps and bounds.

His company now reaches over 300K new entrepreneurs every single month and is worth a whopping quarter-billion dollars.

His inspiring true life story of defeating the odds, ignoring the naysayers, and overcoming countless limitations to pursue and achieve his dreams, is what lead to the making of the blockbuster success ‘Rudy’. But Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger didn’t just succeed at reaching his dream to play football for Norte Dame, or in having a movie made after him. He also succeeded in accumulating a sizeable net worth.

So, that’s exactly what this page will be highlighting; Rudy Ruettiger’s net worth and his net worth’s current earning power. While we’re at it, we’ll also include a few fun facts related to his success and influence. So, let’s dive in.

What Is Rudy Ruettiger’s Net Worth?

As of 2025 Rudy Ruettiger’s net worth is approximately $550,000. Rudy amassed his net worth from a combination of proceeds from his movie, time spent giving speeches as a motivational speaker, from his various books like “Rudy: My Story”, “Rudy Ruettiger: The Walk On”, etc.. , and from his various businesses ventures over the years.

Rudy’s Net Worth is no small accomplishment, in fact, it’s almost double the Median Net Worth of American households between ages 65 – 74, which is $266,400._^[1]

That said, here’s another interesting fact related to Rudy’s net worth. Had Rudy not been forced to settled with the SEC back in 2011 for over $382,866, for a complaint that was brought against him and a few of his associates, he would very easily be a millionaire today._^[2]

How Much Does Rudy Ruettiger Make?

There’s very little data published on Rudy Ruettiger’s current earnings. However, he is of retirement age. As such, we can provide a conservative estimate of how much Rudy Ruettiger makes per year at a minimum based on potential social security income and an estimate of his potential earnings that his assets can produce.

To get to this number, it is assumed Rudy Ruettiger is a savvy enough investor to earn an annual 4.5% yield on his combined $550,000 net worth (FYI, a 4.5% return on investment is a reasonable yield to expect, especially considering returns on safe investments tend to fall between the 3% to 5% range historically).

Thus, hypothetically speaking, if Rudy Ruettiger liquidated all of his assets and used that money to buy a handful of REITS, ETFs, or stocks in strong businesses that consistently pay out a modest 4.5% yield per year, his annual yield from those investments would be approximately $24,750.

Therefore, if we combined the potential yield from his assets, and combined them with an estimate of the average retirement benefits received for retired workers of $1,558.54, _^[3] his estimated annual income (not counting any income he receives from current projects, book sale proceeds, or other speaking/business dealings) is at a minimum, approximately $43,446.
