PERSONAL FINANCE

Rule of 72 Albert Einstein is credited with discovering the compound interest rule of 72: What is it? 72 / interest rate = # of years to double Try the example...

Example If I have a $5,000 investment earning 10% interest how long will it take my $5,000 to become $10,000? 72 / 10 = 7.2 About 7 years for the $5,000 investment to become $10,000.

It is rumored... that Albert Einstein once said that compound interest is the most powerful force in the universe! Keep this in mind!

Insurance Insurance is an important component of personal finance. In particular Life Insurance provides the beneficiary with a lump sum payment to pay for things like: Mortgage Car loans Daily living expenses

There are 2 types of life insurance: 1. Term 2. Permanent Term -- covers a fixed number of years. Permanent -- provides lifelong coverage.
