Hello everyone,
I'm trying to switch from gnucash to beancount and having some trouble with
the concept of tracking investments at cost. I feel that I've RTFM'd enough
to understand the mechanics of cost vs price, but I'm not sure about the
benefits of using cost in the first place.

I'm trying to make a query that would return networth over time. With a lot
of experimentation, I've found that
SELECT year, month, last(balance) WHERE account ~ 'Assets|Liabilities'
works (using the examples/simple/basic.beancount ledger from the github
