My $350,000 net worth is almost here

Today was a good day for the TSX! My non-registered portfolio closed the session at $145,181.64, my US portfolio at $4,905.52, my RRSP portfolio - stock only - at $66,459.71 - and my TFSA portfolio at $130,719.39. I quickly updated my investment portfolio. From my calculation, I am only missing about $215 before my net worth finally hit the magical $350,000. It seems to me that I had been waiting for this to happen for a long time now.

$350,000 is a big number. I get to have a sense of that now because the house of our next-door neighbor is currently for sale at a whopping $180,000. There's also that house across the street, which used to be the house of one of my grandfather's brothers, which is for sale for $100,000. I could basically buy those two houses if I wanted to. The house that belongs to one of my grandfather's brothers is really cute, but all the windows would need or eventually would need to be changed, and also, the painting outside of the house is in need of a bit of love. The outside of that house hasn't been done in the longest time. For a house that needs love, $100,000 is not exactly cheap, even if the house is cute. 

If I am lucky, tomorrow may be the there where for the first time, I will be sitting on a $350,000 net worth. May that day arrive quickly so I can just move on to something more exciting... my first $400,000.
