Understanding Investment Growth
Investment growth combines two powerful forces: your regular contributions and compound returns on those investments.
Key factors affecting growth:
- Time - The longer you invest, the more compounding works for you
- Consistency - Regular contributions add up significantly
- Return rate - Even small differences compound over time
- Starting early - Time in the market beats timing the market
