I Wonder What is the Rule of 72 and the Rate of Return?

  • 1.  The rule of 72 lets you calculate the effect of compound interest with a formula.
  • 2.  Take 72 and divide it with the rate of return, i.e., 4 percent. Result is the number of years to double your money, i.e., 18 years.
  • 3.  The difference between $10,000 at 4% versus 12% is $600,000. $600,000 is equal to 20 years’ salary of someone who earns $30,000 annually.

Wealthy peop tend to spend time learning and understanding how money works.They ask questions, seek advice, and solutions to get better returns for their money.
