Compound interest is your friend. It`s simple: When you invest money you earn returns on your investment. The next year you earn returns on both your original amount and the returns from the first year. In the third year you earn returns on your capital and the first two years` returns. And so it grows…. It`s important to remember it may not grow every year, if the investment markets go down so will your investment, but over the long run the trend will be upwards.
