Make Your Child A Millionaire:
When they're born, invest $1,000 into an S&P 500 index fund.
Invest $100 into that account every month until they're 21.
By age 21, they'll have $109,000 invested.
Leave it alone and stop adding to it.
At age 50, that money should grow to $2.6 million.
Bonus: Teach your kid to invest $500/month
starting at 21.
If they continue what you started by 50, that total should be $3.9 million.
This is how generational wealth is built.
