Hey single women in advertising, what’s your net worth? I’ve been searching for a figure that’s women-centric and for those that are without partners but haven’t found one so “niche”. I think a lot about if I’m at an OK place financially as I get older. I can share mine in the comments too. I’m not here to brag, I think mine is probably a B– at 41 years old.

Around 700k at 45, but honestly only started making good money in the past 5 years. I feel if I’d made smarter choices this number would be a lot higher

I’m in a similar boat. But I think 700 is pretty damn good.

350k @ 33. No house. I was VERY lucky to never have any debt and have parents who taught me to save and invest. I've maxed out my 401k and IRA almost every year since I started working.

$2.1M at 44. One child raised solo from day 1. Invest. Live a bit below your means. Prioritize your health and spending time in nature.

~200k at 31. I have a partner, we keep our money entirely separate, but it sure helps to have someone to split rent and pet costs.

I wouldn't consider my number normal, I really hate this work and want to retire early.

$800k at 52. Maxxx out your 401ks—wish I did that when I started out in the business at 25.

If I had 800k in a 401k at 52 I’d use some of that annual contribution money to start maxing a Roth IRA.

I try to put 10% of each check on a Roth IRA. But can’t do it every time unfortunately. And that’s how I’ve been saving for the past few years freelancing. It was much easier as staff.

400k at 38. Wish I’d taken investing seriously earlier, but overall feel ok given no help from parents / covered my own student debt.

$285k in late 40s. So behind for many reasons (single mom dragged through family court for many years, and have never had a dual income partnership). My parents provided child care vs. money. I feel fortunate to own a home but have no idea how I’ll retire…

like

I honestly have no idea, I should figure this out though. I’ve consistently added to 401ks over the years (first job on) which now are in different investments with a financial advisor, have a 25k life insurance policy outside of my work one. I own my own home (not paid for fully yet), I have about 10k in savings and a paid for car. No credit card or student loan debt (paid off).

Addition or not, sounds like you’re doing good :)

That’s me too! Same age. About 8-900k as well. I don’t feel like it’s nearly enough. I do have a property that has around 200K in value. But still!

I’ve made A LOT of money in my life. I beat myself up for not having more. But I also had a wonderful life - travelling, etc.

I’m freaking out about retirement. How do you feel?

HR is scheduling the interviews without checking time with me. One interview was scheduled and then it was rescheduled to a different time at last minute. I wasn't available at that time so I mailed the HR for a different slot. They again scheduled it for a later date without checking the time with me.
