faq

What is the Rule of 72?

A simple way to estimate assets doubling time; divide 72 by the annual interest rate.

Simple vs Compound interest?

Simple interest is only on principal; compound interest earns "interest on interest," growing exponentially.

Does it include taxes?

Calculations are pre-tax, intended to show the general trend and growth of investments.
