Below are 5 signs you're richer than you think:
1. You've anchored your expectations
It's natural to compare where your stock portfolio is today compared to a year ago.
Just because you are down relative to last year doesn't mean you are doing poorly financially.
Accept where you are today and move forward.

2. You forget how far you've come

I was drowning in debt, a financial mess.
It's easy to get wrapped up in the day-to-day and forget about how much progress you're making over the years.
