Why Compounding Matters

Three perspectives on the most powerful force in personal finance.

The Power of Time

Time is your greatest asset in compounding. Every year you wait to start investing costs you exponential growth in the future.

An investor who starts at 25 and stops at 35 will often have more by age 65 than someone who starts at 35 and invests continuously until 65—despite contributing far less.

Start young: 40 years
Start late: 30 years
Growth difference: Often 40%+

Real Examples
