Returns are not guaranteed; this shows what a steady rate would do. Contributions are added at the end of each month. Not financial advice.
Frequently asked
What is compound interest?
Interest earned on your interest. Each period the interest is added to the balance, so the next period earns on a bigger amount.
What return should I use?
It depends on what you invest in. Savings accounts pay a few percent; broad stock index funds have historically averaged more, with ups and downs. Returns are never guaranteed.
Is this financial advice?
No. It shows the maths of a steady rate. Talk to a qualified adviser about your own situation.
