How to Turn Your Child Into a Millionaire
By Age 33 on a Penny a Day
Save a penny a day and you'll have 30 cents
saved up at the end of a month. Let's say you begin doing that on the day your
child is born, and continue doing so until your child turns age 18.
Then your son or daughter takes over and
continues saving a penny a day for another 22 years, a total of 40 years
altogether.
Let's assume that the money grows
tax-deferred in an IRA account, that you never withdraw any funds and let's
ignore the effects of inflation for purposes of this exercise.
Finally, let's say you can get an average
3% monthly return on your money the entire time. If that sounds a bit high, and
perhaps even risky, it's not! We will show you in Two Steps To Wealth how
easy it can actually be.
So what's the answer?
Save a penny a day and grow it at 3% per month
and your child will be a millionaire by age 33, and worth $14,516,688.25 by age
40!
Over
14 million dollars on a penny a day. That's the power of compound
interest, which we call the 'Bankers Secret'.
When you're in debt and make minimum
monthly installment payments, the power of compound interest works against you
in two different ways.
First, much of the payment you make is pure
interest, and not a pay down of principal. This slow amortization of the
original loan amount saps your income. And remember: you're only going to get a
limited amount of income in your life, whatever the annual amount may be.
Secondly, each dollar of payment you make
towards debt is a dollar that cannot compound for you for years to come.
This is called 'lost opportunity' income,
and can be the one single factor that makes the difference between retiring
broke and retiring wealthy.
