What is Compound Interest?

Compound interest is when you earn interest on both your original investment AND on the interest you've already earned. This creates a snowball effect that accelerates your wealth growth over time.

The Formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)

  • A = Final amount
  • P = Principal (initial investment)
  • r = Annual interest rate (decimal)
  • n = Compounding frequency per year
  • t = Time in years
