Daily vs Monthly Compounding
Compare how compounding frequency affects your returns.
Compounding frequency matters, but less than most people think. On $10,000 at 6% over 20 years: annual compounding gives $32,071, monthly gives $33,102, and daily gives $33,201. The difference between monthly and daily is just $99 over 20 years. What matters far more is your contribution amount and the interest rate.
