The miracle of compounding

Ann Wilson explains the miracle of compounding.
Ann Wilson explains the miracle of compounding.
COMPOUNDING is a miracle ingredient that not only guarantees financial freedom for you, but if you choose to, can also guarantee that your children become multimillionaires, says CEO of The Wealth Chef Ann Wilson.

"For most people ... you work really hard your whole life, hopefully save a bit and then when you retire, hopefully you can live off that bit and it will last you long enough and hopefully you die before it runs out.

"Now for me that is barbaric," says Wilson.

She says compounding is the yeast that expands wealth and makes it grow but only if you know how to use it.

There are two key factors when it comes to compounding. One is money and the other is time - this is where the magic really happens.

"The real key spice to making compounding work for you is time," says Wilson
