What it covers
What your people will learn.
- Finance
At 5% a year after inflation, a dollar saved at 25 ends up worth about 2.7 times a dollar saved at 45. The maths behind that is simple, and most people still stop saving in the years when it looks like nothing is happening.
Compound growth stays nearly flat for years and then bends upward, so the early contributions feel pointless at exactly the moment they matter most. The same maths runs in reverse on card debt, where a balance at 24% doubles in about three years if nothing is paid.
This course works through it with real figures. You learn the rule of 72, see when ten early years of saving beat thirty later ones and when they do not, watch a minimum payment stretch a card balance across two decades, and see why the order of good and bad years matters once withdrawals begin. Every example states the rate it assumes, because no one can promise a return.
You walk away with a doubling time for one of your own balances, a debt-payoff order you will keep to, and one automatic monthly transfer working for you.
Who it's for
New savers: want to know whether starting small now is worth it, and how much difference the start date makes.
People carrying card debt: want to see what the balance is costing and which debt to clear first.
Anyone building long-term habits: want to use the same curve on skills and everyday spending decisions.
