Compounding Interest

Albert Einstein once said that compound interest is the 8th wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it; he who doesn't, pays it.

A good rule of thumb to calculate the power of compound interest is the rule of 72. Divide 72 by the interest rate to find out how many years it will take for your money to double.

Combining regular deposits with compound interest can lead to significant growth in your savings over time.
