    doesn’t matter if I understand that when rent has going up $100/year for the last 4 years and now consumes 99% of my income leaving me deciding between rent, food, and electricity. none of that matters when i have negative money to invest with and no debt.

      It matters to the extent that there is a whole class of people who don’t have to worry about that stuff that think you’re not paying enough taxes and could use less of YOUR social security when retirement comes.

            I’m not saying i shouldn’t understand compound interest. I do understand it. I’m just saying it hasn’t helped me.

            like what are you even implying i should be doing that I’m not?
