Welcome back to another monthly update from Root of Good! We spent most of April at home enjoying the springtime flora and fauna. But we also managed to squeeze in a week in the Caribbean on board the Holland America Rotterdam cruise ship.
Right now we are just a few days away from commencing a six week period of busy travel that brings us to the west coast of the USA, then Alaska, Europe, and at the end of June, back to the Caribbean. We'll be back home for a few days here and there but mostly on the road during that timeframe.
I've spent a big part of April taking care of "business" at home. Working on financial planning and filing taxes, tackling some chores and repairs around the house, and visiting with family and friends. Since we're doing a lot of traveling, I've been doing a lot of research and travel planning as well. I'm basically a part-time travel agent these days (with a customer base of one very demanding client - me!).
On to our financial progress. April was a decent month for our finances overall. Our net worth increased very slightly by $4,000 to end the month at $3,351,000. Our April income of $3,581 was almost enough to cover our spending of $4,261 for the month.
Let's jump into the details from last month.
