00:00$100,000 invested is the holy grail of investing. You need to do everything you
00:05can to get that invested as soon as possible. It took about 6.5 years to get
00:10to your first $100,000 but then only about four years to get to the next at
00:16$200,000 and to get to $300,000 total only about three years after that. By
00:22year 25 you're well over a million dollars and you can see on that graph
00:27how sharp of an increase it starts making. Looking at a 40 year chart the
00:31numbers just get insane. Look at this increase and it's basically all compound
00:36interest. From year 39 to year 40 there's almost $500,000 of growth and
00:43that's just pure compound interest alone in one year. Remember that all that was
00:47possible with a good ETF or index fund averaging 10% per year.
