Why I Joined Truly Rich Club and Why You Should Too

I joined Truly Rich Club in 2011.  I basically have no idea on how to invest in the stock market then.  A colleague and I were just chatting casually and she mentioned the name "Bo Sanchez".  I immediately googled the said name and started reading about him.  *He is an author, an entrepreneur and a preacher.  He is known as a "Preacher in Blue Jeans."

If you google "Bo Sanchez" you will find the below:
















The first result would be Bo Sanchez' TrulyRichClub.  It took me a while before I decided to join the "club".  I was a little adamant because, well, I will have to pay the membership fee of PHP497 (the cheapest membership fee) a month.  Not that much, but still the term "membership fee" scares me but since I really want to try investing, I eventually joined.

It took a lot of reading and understanding of how "stocks trading" works before I decided to give it a try.  (see my blog http://bit.ly/how_i_started_trading_stocks).  Well, I am not claiming to be an expert even with reading a lot of blogs, "asking" around and attending seminars.  NO.  I do not think I will be able to be the "expert" that I wanted to be, NOT YET - the reason why I am still a member of the club.  But that is not the only reason I have.  Aside from the Stock Updates (list of recommended stocks to buy) I get also some "Power Talks", Wealth Strategies newsletter which I get once a month.  I also get an email reminding me to sell my stocks or to hold it if it reaches the "limit" plus a lot more.  Trust me, the blogs/newsletters are awesome, very informative and you will never regret joining Truly Rich Club.  The best part is, I was given a free, YES, you read it right, F-R-E-E life insurance worth ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND PESOS.  Oh did I mention that I am only paying PHP497 a month for all of these?  It's worth it.

It's time for you to join too.  They have a money back satisfaction guarantee.

Law of Compounding Interest

Law of Compounding Interest

Albert Einstein described it as “the greatest mathematical discovery of all time”. According to Wikipedia “Compound interest” is interest added to the principal of a deposit or loan so that the added interest also earns interest from then on. This addition of interest to the principal is called “compounding.”

How it works

Say for example you invested PHP 10,000 at 12% interest per annum.  At the end of the year (12 months) the interest of that would be (10,000 x 12%) PHP 1,200.  So by the end of the year you will have a total investment of PHP 11,200 (PHP 10,000 initial investment + PHP 1,200 interest earned).  Now if you do not withdraw the original investment (PHP 10,000) and the interest (PHP 1,200) and leave it for another year, you will have PHP 12,544.  So in two years your PHP 10,000 would have earned PHP 2,544.  Say you keep your PHP 10,000 for 20 years, your total investment would sum up to PHP 96,462.93.  See computation below.

Here’s another table.
Say for example you invest PHP 2000 a month, religiously, after 12 months you will have PHP 12000.  You will be a millionaire after 21 years, with just PHP 2000 a month.

Secret of Starting Early

Say there are two friends, Juan and Maria.  Maria started investing at the age of 25 and Juan started a little later like after 10 years.  By the time Maria turns 35, her PHP 10,000 is already amounting to PHP 31,058.48.  After another 10 years, both Juan and Maria are 45yo by then, their investments would be below:

By the time they both retire at the age of 65yo, their investment would have been:

At 65 Juan would have PHP 299,599.22 and Maria would have PHP 930,509.70.

See the big difference?  Maria is PHP 630,910.48 richer than Juan when they retire at 65yo.  And again that is just PHP 10,000 one time investment.

Well of course your money will never earn 12% per annum in a normal savings account, not even in a time deposit account; you will have to find some other ways of investing your money like in stocks, mutual funds or equity funds.

Never ever invest in an “easy money” scheme where they promise so much in return.  It’s a scam.
