Number of years x interest = 72
The Rule of 72 is a simple rule of thumb to calculate compound interest. For e.g., if putting your money in a savings account gets you an interest rate of 8%, we can quickly calculate:
Y = 72 / 8 = 9 years
Therefore, at 8% interest, your money will double in 9 years.

Saving some money in a piggy bank is well and good, but if you’re serious about saving in the long term, open a savings account. If you already have a bank account, this account should be a different one, so that you spend from only one of the two accounts.
Look for a bank offering the highest interest rates, so that you earn the most on your money, year on year.

The next step is to start putting money in your account. Start with whatever you have, whether it's five bucks or a thousand, it all helps. The best thing to do is to make a saving plan. Decide how much you're willing to put aside every month and then do it.
If you already have an account, set up an automatic transfer every month, so that your money can go automatically into your savings account.

Putting your money in a savings account is a passive way to earn interest and grow your money. But if you have a serious goal (paying for college, backpacking through Europe after graduation, etc.) the best idea is to start making your money work for you. The way to do this is to invest your money somewhere where it's going to make more interest than in your savings account.

Saving is not the same as investing, though the two are often confused for each other.Saving is the act of preserving income for a future use. Therefore, The main objective of saving is to preserve the money. Money is usually saved in extremely safe, liquid securities or accounts, so that it can be converted to cash in a very short time.
Investing is the act of placing money in an asset that is expected to grow, i.e. that the asset will generate an acceptable return over time, making you wealthier with each passing year. Investing is a much longer process, often yielding better returns in the long run.

A share or stock is an instrument that signifies ownership in a corporation and represents a claim on part of the corporation's assets and earnings. In other words, a shareholder is an owner of a company. Ownership is determined by the no. of shares a person owns relative to the number of outstanding shares. For example, if a company has 1,000 shares of stock outstanding and one person owns 100 shares, that person would own and have claim to 10% of the company's assets.
Historically, investing in the stock market has outperformed most other investments in the long run.

Mutual funds are a type of investment where an investment company sells shares to the public and then invests the money in a group of investments such as stocks and bonds.
Since mutual funds are operated by money managers, who attempt to produce a gain for the fund’s investors, it is an ideal investment vehicle for people who are new to investing, but still want to have a diverse portfolio.

Bonds are usually issued by a company, municipality or government. A bond investor lends money to the issuer and in exchange, the issuer promises to repay the loan amount on a specified maturity date. The issuer usually pays the bond holder periodic interest payments over the life of the bond.
Bond maturities range from a 90-day Treasury bill to a 30-year government bond. Corporate and municipals are typically in the three to 10-year range.

The biggest benefit of the PPF is that the investment is totally tax-deductible.
