A Dollar Saved A Dollar Earned

The way to accumulate money is to save small sums with regularity. A
small sum saved daily for fifty years will grow at the following rate:

Daily Savings. Result. Daily Savings. Result.
One cent $ 950 Sixty cents $ 57,024
Ten cents 9,504 Seventy cents 66,528
Twenty cents 19,006 Eighty cents 76,032
Thirty cents 28,512 Ninety cents 85,537
Forty cents 38,015 One dollar 475,208
Fifty cents 47,520

The figures from 1 to 90 cents assume about 5.5%
interest. The one dollar amount ($475,208) assumes about 10% interest
