Introduction : Ever do the math on how much coffee you'll drink over your whole life? I did, and let me tell you, the compounding effect is wild! This isn't a lecture on quitting coffee. It's a 'what if' scenario. What if you treated your future self to a daily 'coffee' of savings? You'd be amazed at the wealth you could build.

Visualization Created for John: John, age 22, spends $5 daily on coffee. This visualization projects the cost, adjusted for 3% annual inflation, through his lifetime.

Comparison: The following calculation is derived from the average lifetime performance of four established funds, each with a track record exceeding 30 years.

I hope this was helpful for you to visualize it . Pay attention to your little spending as it costs millions.
