How did your accounts do in 2013?

I thought this might cheer up people since all of the tax talk is depressing.

Our accounts were up 16.5%, 15.0% and 14.9% for 2012. They are all similarly invested.

Helps make up for that 2% increase in Social Security tax.

my 401k is up 15.58% in the last year, my Roth is up 14.53%.

My 401k was up 15%.

Our IRAs were up 18.4%.

Great year to be heavily invested in stocks. Pretty much every asset class did very well.

403b: 17.8% and Roth: 15.4%

We changed brokerages in the middle of the year so particularly because we had a lot of contributions it is hard to get any straight statistics.

But at any rate, I'm very happy with how the numbers look, although my 401(k) only earned like 7%. Should probably change my investments. On the plus side, it only has contributions from 2 years in it so it isn't a huge account.

H's rollover 401k was the clear winner for us- up 60.43%.

Our other accounts were around 15 and 16%.

15.1% on my 401k

I have to brag about my DH's private investments - he made a 35% return this year.

My TSP was up about 15%.

Mine ended at 69.88% . Not where I had hoped to end up but still decent.

H's was 48.8% . Also not where he had hoped.

These are the percentages they increased? And you're disappointed? Damn. I was thrilled with my 15%.

I'm not disappointed, just didn't hit our goal of 84% and 59%. We also day trade futures market so our percentages will be higher.

Got it.

BTW, I hope I didn't sound mean. I was just surprised and impressed!

My 401(k) was up 17.8% I am so happy I changed investments around at the beginning of the year.
