Questions
What is compound interest?
Interest calculated on both your original money and the interest already earned. Over long periods it grows much faster than simple interest.
Does compounding frequency matter much?
A little: monthly compounding earns slightly more than annual at the same rate. The effective annual rate shown makes the difference visible.
