Do you know the rule of 72?

00:00:03.403 --> 00:00:05.038 line:80%
It's an easy way to calculate

00:00:05.105 --> 00:00:07.908 line:80%
just how long it's going to take
your money to double.

00:00:08.041 --> 00:00:09.643 line:80%
Just take the number 72

00:00:09.710 --> 00:00:12.512 line:80%
and divide it by the interest rate
you hope to earn.

00:00:12.579 --> 00:00:15.449 line:80%
That number gives you the approximate
number of years it will take

00:00:15.515 --> 00:00:17.117 line:80%
for your investment to double.

00:00:17.184 --> 00:00:20.554 line:80%
As you can see,
a one time contribution of $10,000

00:00:20.787 --> 00:00:23.390 line:80%
doubles 6 more times at a 12% return

00:00:23.724 --> 00:00:24.958 line:80%
than at 3%.

00:00:25.292 --> 00:00:28.061 line:80%
How many doubling periods
do you have in your life?
