# Red Start Journal

> Red Start Journal is a fully transparent investing journal: a portfolio built from scratch in public, with every trade, fee, debt payment and return (XIRR) tracked live.

Just start. Let's grow together! The portfolio page shows live figures (net worth, total invested, fees, remaining debt at 14.5% annual interest, XIRR) computed from a public transaction log. Amounts can be displayed in multiple currencies.
