April 2012 Net Worth Update +1.53% - $30k Milestone!

I had thought I was going to easily break the $30k mark this month but it turns out that I barely squeaked by with only $2 to spare.

April 1, 2012

TFSA - $15,335.97 (+0.17%)

TD Waterhouse TFSA e-series- $4,997.13 (+0.62%)

Stocks - $3,890.92 (+10.3%)

(stocks purchased this month = $278.72)

ISA - $3,827.55 (-9.35%)

RRSP - $1,251.34 (+0.17%)

Chequing - $699.46

Total: $30,002.37

Gain: +1.53% or $450.67

To celebrate the $30k milestone here are some blog statistics which aren't really interesting to anyone but myself. I tried to increase my presence on the internet this past month and it shows in the better Alexa stats, but definitely did not translate into higher earnings.

$0.03 - Jackpot! - Only 277 years until my first $100 payout

Also, ING Direct just changed some of their interest rates so I may think about moving some money around this month.
If you're interested, ING's new rates as of April 1 are:
Investment Savings Account (ISA) - 1.35%
RSP Investment Savings Account (RSP ISA) - 1.35%
Tax-Free Investment Savings Account (TFSA) - 1.60%
They also dropped the 2.5% rate for 90 day TFSA and RSP GIC's.
