In the applications folder, if you open up the utilities folder there is an app called activity monitor. it displays cpu/ram usage, running processes, etc. if you just want memory, there is an app called iClean memory available for .99 through the app store. It displays used RAM/ no cpu, but it has an optimize button that will help to free up system RAM if/when you need to. Very useful.

You can also look at MenuMeters which adds that info to your menubar.
