What is Compound Interest?

Compound interest is the interest calculated on the initial principal and also on the accumulated interest from previous periods. It's often called "interest on interest" and can significantly increase your returns over time.

Albert Einstein reportedly called compound interest "the eighth wonder of the world" because of its powerful effect on growing wealth over time.
