Cute kid. Young folks need to be made aware of the value of saving. Time can be best friend or worst enemy in investing. Glad she didn't tackle the rule of 78's. It might have gotten messy. Thanks for sharing.

This is more than most adults know about investing and returns. One other object lesson from this is that you need to contribute monthly to your savings to allow more money to compound. Even 500k will not be enough to sustain most for 20 years.
Most normal investors (401k type) would be pretty happy with an 8% annual return on their investment. That, coupled with your contributions will help you double your money about every 7-8 years. The target needs to be a million or more for a "safe retirement" with the cost of healthcare rising and people living longer etc.
Great video. I wish more kids were taught at least this much about investing and understood it and could articulate it well. It is a life lesson worth knowing and worth knowing as early in life as possible.
