00:06 Earning on both your initial investment and accrued interest over time is a key element

00:14 time.

00:15 Tip 2.

00:16 The rule of 72.

00:17 Simply divide 72 by the interest rate you expect to earn.

00:19 For example, if you expect to earn a 10% annual return, it would take about 7.2 years (72

00:24 divided by 10) for your money to double in value.

00:26 Tip 3.

00:27 The value of money emphasizes the significance of starting retirement savings early, as money

00:31 invested today holds greater worth due to its potential for earning interest over time,

00:35 allowing for the development of a larger nest egg.

00:38 Passive growth over 25 years.

00:39 One approach is to allow your $100,000 investment to grow passively.

00:42 With no further monthly contributions, compound earnings can help you reach or exceed $1 million.

00:46 A 10% average annual rate of return could transform $100,000 into $1 million in approximately

00:51 25 years.

00:52 Tip 5.

00:53 Active investing of $400 per month for 20 years.

00:55 With a 10% average annual return, this strategy could increase your savings from $100,000

01:00 to $1 million in just over 20 years.

01:02 Tip 6.

01:03 Diversification.

01:04 Diversification involves spreading investments across various asset classes, like stocks,

01:07 bonds, and real estate.

01:08 This approach reduces overall risk and can enhance returns.

01:11 Tip 7.

01:12 Long-term investments.

01:13 Focusing on long-term investments, usually held for a decade or more, allows you to ride

01:16 out market fluctuations and benefit from the compounding effect.
