Compounding is a powerhouse tool when it comes to building wealth. When you put money into an investment account, you earn a varied rate of return on the balance. If you leave your money in the account, it can grow. An RCB Bank wealth advisor can help you plan a savings strategy built for your individual lifestyle goals and needs.
