Compound interest is the interest calculated on both the initial principal and the accumulated interest from previous periods. This powerful tool can make a big difference over time! Example: Imagine starting with $1,000 in savings, contributing $500 monthly at an 11% annual return. After 40 years, that account could grow to $4.38 million!

Factor in periodic withdrawals or additional contributions to see how they affect your growth.
