Comparing net worth against age benchmarks
Federal Reserve SCF 2022

Where does your net worth sit for your age?

Benchmarks are a reference point, not a target. Two people the same age can sit worlds apart on income, inheritance, and cost of living.

01

Medians beat averages

A handful of very large fortunes drags the average far above what a typical household holds. The median is the honest midpoint.

02

Your own trend is the real benchmark

Beating a national median changes nothing on its own. Moving up against your own figure from last year does.

03

Age bands hide a lot

The band is context, not a scorecard. Cost of living, inheritance, and career stage all shift what a number means.

Track your own line instead.
