If you start investing at age 30 and invest $1,000 each year for ten years earning 8% per year.
Then you
stop contributing after 10 years. Your investment continues
to earn an 8% annual return. When you reached age 65,
your $10,000 will have grown to $106,053. If you start
investing at age 40 and invest $1,000 each year for
25 years,
also earning 8% per year. At
the end of the period, your $25,000 investment is worth
$78,447.
As you can see, in the first scenario although you
contributed to your investment for 15 fewer years than
you would at age 40 and invested $15,000 less, you
accumulated $28,194 more for retirement.*
So what’s
the difference? Time and power of compounding!
