Frequently Asked Questions

What is compound interest?

Compound interest means you earn interest on both your original money and the interest already earned. Over time, growth accelerates - that is why starting early matters so much.

What is the compound interest formula?

A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where P is principal, r is annual rate, n is compounding frequency per year, and t is years.

What is the difference between simple and compound interest?

Simple interest is calculated only on the principal. Compound interest is calculated on principal plus accumulated interest, so it grows faster.

How often should interest compound?

More frequent compounding gives slightly higher returns. Monthly compounding beats yearly at the same rate, though the difference is small.
