The sooner you begin, the more you earn.

Ready to invest in your future? Open a Benjamin Builder Account today.

Studies have shown that the younger you begin investing, the more time you have to increase your personal wealth. That’s the power of time, coupled with the potency of compounding.

Many wealth management experts agree that the right time to start investing is in your 20’s when you’re gainfully employed, but perhaps don’t have a mortgage to worry about yet. It’s best to start investing earlier in small increments rather than in big increments at a later time.

Have you been putting off investing because you don’t have the knowledge? Or simply because you don’t have the time? Fortunately, starting a Benjamin Builder Account at American National Bank & Trust is the easiest way to begin investing because it takes as little as 15 minutes to open an account.

7 REASONS TO START A BENJAMIN BUILDER ACCOUNT IN YOUR 20’s!

Save more: With early age investments, you develop a habit of saving more. The more you invest, the more you get in the future.

Improves risk taking ability: Studies prove that young investors have more risk-taking ability than older ones. So the probability of earning handsome returns at a young age gets enhanced.

Time value of money: Early investments lead to compounding returns, so your money grows with time. This puts you ahead of others who start investing at a later stage in life.

More recovery time: If you invest early and incur a loss, you have more time to make up for the loss. Keep in mind that Bear Markets come and go, but history shows that investing early (and remaining invested) is the surest way to grow your wealth.

A more secure future: Investments made at an early age can be very handy when tough times strike, like losing a job. Conversely, they also help finance good times, like taking a vacation or purchasing a new car or home. This is especially true when you have investments outside of your retirement accounts.

Less need to borrow: Investing at an early age is also useful because when you have surplus money invested, you will rarely need to borrow money or struggle with debt or credit card payments which can erode your long-term financial health and peace of mind.

Support your retirement plans: Early age investments increase the probability of reaching financial stability at a younger age, giving you more options before retirement and a more secure life after retirement.
