Husband and I have been married 10 years now. My tracking starts that October after we got married, so I present to you: 10 years of finances together.

This decade started with my graduating nursing school the week before we got married, and has included among other things, a masters degree and professional field change for husband, accidentally flipping a house for a huge profit, accidentally flipping a car for a profit (we make like $10k on having bought a used VW during the lawsuit nonsense lol), paying off student loans, paying OOP for 2 IVF cycles, moving cities ummmm 4 times (so living in 5 places- this was a low decade for moves for me haha), so many things. And of course 2 children and a dog.
WHEW. Good thing I like the guy.

Nice 
I am not consistent but I sometimes do “marriage finance reports” which shows our financial status in 2015 when we got married, and then how it is now, and what the differences are! We are NOT QUITE at 10 years though. Soon!
Aug. 2015 Net Worth $195,589
May. 2025 Net Worth $1,447,341
2015 Invest $160,406
2025 Invest $1,215,276
I had begun on my own earlier so we had a head start… and then over the past few years, that compounding thing seemed to really kick in!

Husband was at a pretty clean couple thousand when we married. No debt but no assets. I had some stocks but also a TON of nursing school debt. It evened out to slightly positive when we first got married. I think that $19k counted car values back then

I started tracking 3 months into our marriage and our whooping $9k net worth. We’re 13 years in and not quite the same dramatic progression, but it is pretty shocking to see how quickly the money piles on.

Wow. I just did the calcs for just since we got married in 2023 and in just under two years it is… a significant difference. Despite buying a house.
Stocks.are.nuts.

Ours is remarkable despite being married through the 2007-8 crash.

Y’all…I’ve been teetering at the edge of $200K net worth almost all of 2025, but the market fluctuations have meant i’ve been on the damn edge for so long. today the market is happy and I finally crossed the $200K mark!!
And here is all 10 years of YNAB. $200K took about 10 years, incidentally.
This is excluding non-cash/equities assets like bike, and spouse’s assets as we’re financially separate but theoretically I get the house and a bunch more money in any unfortunate scenario. But also a very very large mortgage.
