Instead of relying on compound interest to generate wealth, use it as a supplement to your profits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s why you shouldn&#8217;t rely on compound interest as your only way to acquire wealth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-can-you-get-rich-off-compound-interest\"><strong>Can You Get Rich off Compound Interest? <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea that you can get rich off compound interest implies that <strong>you can create massive wealth by funneling small amounts of money toward pension and investment accounts<\/strong>. DeMarco argues that, because it encourages you to depend on unpredictable market forces to generate wealth for you, this belief convinces you to <em>risk<\/em> the money you do have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In theory, investments create wealth by providing a predictable and healthy rate of return over the course of decades. In reality, however, the markets are unpredictable and the rates are too low to make a significant impact on the small, capped sums of money the government allows you to contribute to your investment accounts. You also can\u2019t guarantee that financial managers won\u2019t <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/make-bad-choices\/\">make poor decisions<\/a> that lose you money or that the rate of inflation won\u2019t reduce the value of your investments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: David Bach (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/app\/book\/the-automatic-millionaire\/shortform-introduction\"><em>The Automatic Millionaire<\/em><\/a>) offers a contrasting perspective on compound interest. He first explains that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/app\/book\/the-automatic-millionaire\/part-1#how-compound-interest-grows-your-money\">you\u2019ll earn far more from investing small amounts of money than from not investing at all<\/a>\u2014the impact isn\u2019t insignificant, as DeMarco suggests. Then, Bach suggests that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/app\/book\/the-automatic-millionaire\/chapter-3#how-to-diversify-your-investments\">diversifying your investments (by putting money into a combination of cash, bonds, and stocks) ensures the overall health of your investment portfolio<\/a>, even when faced with unstable interest and inflation rates. Further, he claims that anyone can learn how to automate and manage their own investments, so you don\u2019t even need a financial advisor to manage your money\u2014meaning you won\u2019t risk someone <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/why-do-people-make-bad-decisions\/\">making bad decisions<\/a> on your behalf.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-use-compound-interest-to-supplement-your-profits\"><strong>Use Compound Interest to <em>Supplement <\/em>Your Profits<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to DeMarco, instead of relying on earning compound interest as your <em>only<\/em> plan to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/building-wealth\/\">build wealth<\/a>, you should use it as <em>part<\/em> of a plan to preserve and build wealth. His recommended plan involves developing a profitable business first, then investing your profits to generate additional passive income. He argues that the more profits you invest, the more income you\u2019ll generate\u2014because compound interest dramatically increases the value of large investments over a shorter period of time, even when the rates of return are low.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: While it\u2019s true that the more money you invest, the faster compound interest grows your money, generating wealth <em>before<\/em> you invest offers another distinct advantage: You can afford to take risks with your investments. We previously explained that diversifying your investments ensures the overall safety of your portfolio: Keeping your investments in cash, bonds, and low-risk stocks protects your money. However, as DeMarco argues, these options only offer a low return and limit the income you can make on your investments. On the other hand, having money to spare allows you to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/advisor\/investing\/tips-for-long-term-investing\/\">allocate funds to aggressive, <em>riskier<\/em> investments that have the potential to dramatically increase in value<\/a>.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can you get rich off compound interest?
