Description

Index funds, pioneered by John Bogle in the 1970s, offer a powerful wealth-building strategy. By tracking broad market indices, they provide exposure to hundreds of top companies at low fees, harnessing the power of compounding. Despite initial criticism, index funds have consistently outperformed actively managed funds due to lower costs and market efficiency. Low fees significantly impact growth; a $10,000 investment at 7% annual return for 30 years yields $73,000 with a 0.14% fee fund, but only $57,000 with a 1% fee fund. Dollar-cost averaging, investing fixed amounts regularly, further boosts returns, making index funds a reliable path to financial independence. Checkout Solipillow.com
