Weil's grad so schön zur Systemtheorie passt – und ich diesen Artikel witzigerweise genau vor der Diskussion hier im TTT gelesen habe. Ok, zugegebenermaßen nicht gerade Day-Trading... aber mit dem entsprechenden Zeithorizont ein interessanter Ansatz für's langfrist-Depot.

The World's Greatest Get-Rich Formula

You should be highly skeptical of any and all get-rich schemes ... except for the super-simple formula I'm going to show you below. Because this one really works.

It works so well that it's been used by the world's billionaires -- from moguls of yesteryear such as Rockefeller and Ford to today's tycoons Carlos Slim and Warren Buffett.

But enough already. Let's get to the formula.

The formula
It is, simply:

 

FV = PV * (1+r) ^ n

Where:

 

FV = future value
PV = present value
r = rate of return
n = time (or number of years)

Compounding 101
Now, some astute finance brains will know that equation not as some mystical secret but as the "future value of money" (FVM) equation taught in college.

The FVM formula simply states that your future wealth (FV) is a function of three variables: the amount of money invested today (PV), the rate of return generated (r), and the length of time in which that money is put to work (n). So maximizing future riches requires three steps.
