If one is familiar with Compound Interest ....one can grow his/her money as u get interest on interest !
The formula for annual compound interest, including principal sum, is:
A = P (1 + r/n) (nt)
Where:
A = the future value of the investment/loan, including interest
P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit or loan amount)
r = the annual interest rate (decimal)
n = the number of times that interest is compounded per year
t = the number of years the money is invested or borrowed for
How much time it will take u to double ur money ?
follow :
Rule of 72
Rule of 72 refers to the time value of money. It helps you know the time (in terms of years) required to double your money at a given interest rate. That's why it is popularly known as the 'doubling of money' principle.
The thumb rule is divide 72 by the interest rate
EXAMPLE
If you are assuming a 9 per cent return on your investment,
the number of years in which the money will double is
= 72/Interest rate= 72/9 = 8 years
As per David Bach
If u want to be Rich Pay your self @ 20% of your gross income !! Wealth begins by paying urself First...
