@enazwahsdarb Great intro post to compounding interest, sir! I would like to add some value if I may. I do not own this idea, but I 100% employ it in my own portfolio. Compounding interest, when investing in index funds (funds that mirror the stock market/particular asset class without the high fees charged by funds that are run by managers) is greatly impacted when using DOLLAR COST AVERAGING -- essentially you automate a fixed amount of money, at fixed intervals (weekly, monthly, etc) to go straight from your paycheck to your investment account. By doing this, you AUTOMATICALLY employ the principles advocated by Warren Buffet. Since you are putting in the same amount of money (should be % of your base pay) at the same time every month, your money will buy more stock when the price is lower (ideal) and less stock when the price is higher (also ideal). Hope this is intelligible!

Awesome input. I appreciate your effort. Yes, dollar cost averaging is probably the easiest way for a person to become wealthy without being to technical. It's great because it subsidizes the volatile conditions tbats the markets could have over time.
I wouldn't say its exactly what Warren Buffett does, however.. He just puts all of his mo ey towards his investments haha. He took no excuses and jumped in!
But dolar averaging is great for people who work a job and don't know how to get wealthy!
Thanks for stopping by and absorbing the value in my content! This post was not actually really the money side, but rather the concept. My next post will be about wealth creation :P

When I referenced Warren Buffett, I was referring to value investing. The automation ensures you are not making conscious decisions to buy stock at the wrong time. Rather, buying more when the price is lower and buying less when the price is higher is in sync with his general mantra. For further reading, Burton Malkiel is the main preacher of Dollar Cost Averaging, a method advocated by him and Jack Vogel of Vanguard.

It's true. And Warren Buffett also had to adjust the way he did things over time.. :) Originally it was the Graham method for picking up cigarette-bud type companies for next to nothing (Pretty much penny stocks), but as capital increased, moving more to buying great companies at fair prices, rather than fair companies at great prices :)

Yes, I usually refrain from going all the way back to Benjamin and Graham and mentioning how Buffett was an actual student of Graham at Columbia University -- however you clearly know your material. I have invested a great deal of time in this area of study as well!
