Paul Merriman: How Time Can Turn $3,000 Into $50 million

FYI: As hard as it may be to believe, it's possible to turn a single $3,000 investment into $50 million in a single lifetime. I can't say that I have done it, but I'm going to show how you could.

This is a very tall order, one that requires an entire lifetime and more than one person to carry it out. If you're a parent or grandparent, you can do this. Someday, a child or grandchild could be very grateful that you did.

This is the fourth column in a series on compound interest, which was famously cited by Einstein as one of the wonders of the world. For worthwhile background, you may want to read the first, second and third columns in the series.
Regards,
Ted
