Current Liabilities
(Approximately Age 20’s-30’s 10%-20%, Age 40’s-50’s 10%-20%, Age 60’s-70’s 0%-10% of your liabilities & net worth)
Current liabilities are obligations (bills) that generally must be paid in less than one year.
- Electric, gas, water, garbage bills, etc.
- Unpaid credit card debt
- Medical expenses
- Insurance premiums
- Taxes
Why does it matter?
Cash liabilities are important for maintaining your lifestyle. Understanding changes in your current liabilities will help you determine your spending habits. If current liabilities get too high (relatively) it is important to develop a plan to reign in spending and debt.
