Hi, I really like you! The first point is the idea of my channel and I am very glad to see this article from you. The sooner a person begins to think and build his capital (even investing 4 bucks a day), the sooner he will secure a happy future for himself. My respect!

Exactly!

Compounding works like magic.

He who understand this earns it.

He who doesn't pays it.

Sir, I love your post as always!

And just so you know, whenever I have a big list of emails to go through, I leave yours for last. To me, they are like dessert- the best part of the meal! : )

This is so kind of you. THANK YOU!

I must say that things are quite tough sometimes as I am currently working around 80 hours per week (day job + writing articles on Substack).

Right now, I am finishing Thursday's article about how to read an income statement and I must say I was struggling a bit because I'm very tired. Messages like this motivate us A LOT!

We all adore your writing and we all learn so much from it!

I wish I found your substack years ago.

But as the saying goes: "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear!"

There are NO coincidences in life!

Well... it takes some time to do these calculations.

You need to make an excel sheet with the stock price of Starbucks of the past 20 years and assume that you invested $4 per day each single day.

Then you can calculate the total value of the portfolio and compare it with your initial investment to calculate the return.

That's the total money you would have after investing $4 in Starbucks stock every single day. Your money would have compounded at 19% per year.
