Summary
Learn why GDX and GDXJ outperformed the stock market and by how much.
Are you investing well for financial freedom...or not?
If you invest $10,000 per year for retirement, but earn only 2%, after 20 years you'll have $262,692 and after 30 years $431,908.
However, if you invested for growth and the stock market averaged 10% annually, your $10,000 per year would grow to $697,299 after 20 years and $1,983,928 after 30 years! A huge difference. Your compounding rate, and how well you invest, matters!
