Just an interesting tidbit. I started thinking about the dollar today, and the power it carries over time, particuarly when invested into average stock market alternatives. If an individual invests $1 each day (a mere $365 a year) into a mutual fund/stock that returns 10% annually beginning at age 20, by the time the individual reaches age 65 the investment evolves into $324,710. WOW! Talk about the power of a dollar!!!
