How $100k can turn into $1M+ without lifting a finger #compounding #money

Is it really possible to stop saving for retirement at age 30? In this video, we explain the concept of Coast FIRE. This is a personal finance shortcut that allows you to stop contributing to your retirement accounts decades early. By investing aggressively in your 20s until you hit a critical mass (like $100,000 in low-cost index funds), you can stop adding new money entirely. Because of compounding interest, that $100k will grow to over $1 million by age 65 without you adding another penny. For the next 35 years, you only need to cover your basic living expenses, enabling you to work a low-stress job you love.
