Key Takeaways

Compound interest can be an extremely powerful force – this point has been beaten to death
In the financial realm, pre-tax compounding is very powerful compared to post-tax compounding
- The compounding that results from paying taxes every year is much less than the compounding that results from paying taxes just one time at the end
- A Roth IRA is set up so you pay taxes once before putting your money into the fund (and you never have to pay taxes ever again) – it just keeps compounding
