Fees and taxes are not subtracted here. A 1% annual fee can quietly eat a fifth of your ending balance over thirty years, so it is worth knowing what you are paying.
Investment Growth With Contributions explained simply
This is saving with a habit. You start with some money, add more every month, and let time and growth do the heavy lifting.
For example
Start with $5,000, add $400 a month at 7% for 20 years, and you end up near $250,000. Most of it comes from growth, not your deposits.
