The Path to $1 Million
Becoming a millionaire is more achievable than you think. The key is compound interest - earning returns on your returns over time.
The Power of Starting Early
Someone who invests $300/month from age 25 will have $1 million by age 60. Wait until 35, and they'd need $750/month to reach the same goal.
