NEW YORK - August 8, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

iQuanti: In a world of instant gratification, investing is one of a few situations where people are forced to be patient. That's because the power of investing lies in the accumulation of compound interest, which only works if you give it time. If you're ready to commit to a long-term relationship, here's what compound interest can do for your investments. 

What is compound interest? 

Compound interest is the process of your money earning money through the cycle of re-investing interest back into an interest-bearing account. For example, say you're keeping your emergency fund of $10,000 in a high-yield savings account, earning 1% interest per year. At the end of year one, you'll have $1,100, then in year two, you'll be earning interest on the initial investment plus previous interest earned. After five years, you'll have a total of $10,510.10. 

As you can imagine, larger investments and interest rates will paint quite a different picture with how much you can earn with compound interest. For example, if that same savings account was an investment earning 5% interest, the 5-year total would look closer to $12,762.82 for no extra effort on your part. 

Ways to increase the effects of compound interest 

There are many levers you can pull to amplify the effects of compound interest, including: 

Initial investment: A larger principal investment means you'll start earning more interest from the start. If you can, begin new investments with as large a lump sum deposit as possible, then rely on contributions to accelerate growth. 

Ongoing contributions: Recurring contributions can massively accelerate the growth of accounts, regardless of interest. Committing to a regular recurring investment, whether weekly, monthly or annually, can dramatically change your predicted investment returns for the better. 

Interest rate: Higher interest rates produce more interest over time. Some investments, like a Certificate of Deposit (CD), may lock in a fixed interest rate, so you'll know exactly how much you'll earn when the investment is up. Other investments, like stocks and bonds, have a variable interest rate that's more difficult to predict. 

Compounding frequency: Interest accrues differently in different types of accounts. For example, some accounts compound interest daily, monthly, quarterly, or annually and pay it out in one of those terms. Accounts that earn interest daily will generate more income over time than those that compound monthly, quarterly, or annually. Therefore, when you open a new account, look for products that compound as frequently as possible. 

Investment horizon: Compounding takes time, no matter the frequency. Investments left alone for years or even decades have the most potential to accrue compound interest. That's a big reason why savvy investors start saving for retirement young. They know that given more time to work, compound interest can help them reach retirement goals much faster than contributions alone. 

Withdrawals: Just like contributions can help accelerate the pace of compound interest, withdrawals can stop it in its tracks. Certain accounts that pay dividends offer to send a check to investors instead of re-investing. If you're looking to make the most of compound interest, it's wise to choose to re-invest those gains, which in turn increases your earning potential in the future. 

The bottom line

Tools like this compound interest calculator from investor.gov can help you understand how changes to your initial investment, monthly contributions, interest rate, and more can impact your estimated investment returns in the long run. As with any significant financial decision, working alongside a financial professional before you invest can be wise. Above all, remember that compound interest works best when given space and time, so planning to invest for years or decades can help ensure maximum potential growth.

CALGARY, Alberta - August 5, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

An estimated 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 5 boys will be sexually abused before the age of 16. This statistic became a reality for Andy Bhatti at age 10 after he joined a youth mentorship program. Andy was paired with a mentor who sexually abused him for over four years. The abuse led to him acting out - getting into fights, running away, lying, stealing, doing drugs, and joining a life of crime and gangs. 

Today, Andy Bhatti is the founder of Survivors Supporting Survivors, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to raising awareness and resources for survivors of childhood victimization. The funds raised through charity events and public campaigns help victims of abuse attend therapy and programs designed for men and women who have been victims of child abuse and/or sexual violence.

Donors like Cameron Schiffner have helped survivors receive the support they need to overcome abuse and begin healing from their trauma.

"With Cam's donation, we were able to push three people through the program. It's incredibly important to keep donations going." - Andy Bhatti, Founder of Survivors Supporting Survivors

The damage of childhood victimization

Childhood abuse may last weeks, months, and years, but the emotional and mental damage can span a lifetime. Abuse victims often suffer pain, guilt, and shame that keep them from moving forward and living healthy, happy lives. Many turn to drugs and alcohol to cope with their trauma and numb the pain.

In the years following his abuse, Andy became a full-blown heroin and cocaine addict. He spent an equal amount of time in jail cells and on the streets until he was 27 years old. When he learned he was about to become a father, Andy began a full-life transformation and immersed himself in recovery and therapy. He is now a drug and alcohol interventionist and a strong voice for survivors of sexual abuse. 

Survivors Supporting Survivors

The organization was founded in 2014 to raise funds for victims of abuse and agencies across Canada that provide services for victims. Survivors Supporting Survivors believes that anybody can overcome childhood trauma and abuse with the right support and professional help. Their goal is to support survivors of any form of mental, physical, or sexual abuse.

If you or someone you know is in crisis, there are ways to get help. Survivors Supporting Survivors endorses the following resources for child abuse victims:
