How to Invest in Your Future
When you spend money on things you don’t need, you’re creating what businessman and Beanstox Chairman and co-owner Kevin O’Leary calls “ghost money.” Typically, these expenses are tied to impulse buys, memberships you don’t use, and other unnecessary things that might seem small, but add up over time.
When you spend money on things you don’t need, you’re creating what businessman and Beanstox Chairman and co-owner Kevin O’Leary calls “ghost money.” Typically, these expenses are tied to impulse buys, memberships you don’t use, and other unnecessary things that might seem small, but add up over time.
However, those same small expenses, if invested, could add up. Let’s look at that extra streaming service subscription you have at $9/month. If you were to cut that service out of your life right now and invest the money, you’d have invested $108 after a year. Keep investing that same amount over 30 years (at an assumed 8% annual growth), and at the end of that period, you could have over $13,000.* Not bad for missing out on a couple must-see series. The best part? As you invest more money, your expected returns could also increase.
This isn’t to say that you should go off the grid, cut out all joy from your life, and squirrel away money. Small changes like the example above can have a large impact on your financial future. The trick is to condition yourself into making those decisions more often, then following through with your plan to invest.
*This projection assumes an annual rate of return of 8% (including reinvestment of dividends and excluding fees and taxes), and keeping the funds invested throughout the investment period. Returns are estimated annualized returns, assuming a properly diversified portfolio. This projection does not reflect fees, or the cost associated with investing. Learn more about fees. It is not indicative of past performance or any client’s experience using the Beanstox app.

2. Power Savings: As of September 30, 2024, traditional US Savings Account Rate: 0.46% (YCharts); T-Bill yield: 5% (YCharts); 5% based on the 30-day SEC yield of the Beanstox short-duration bond portfolio ETF constituents; the 30-day SEC yield is a standard metric defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and reflects the dividends and interest earned during the period after the deduction of the ETF’s expenses. There are no assurances that this yield will be sustainable in the future. This product invests in one or more ETFs. Results may vary due to expenses and other factors.

3. Stocks 500: Where applicable, as of September 30, 2024, S&P 500 return assumes an initial $1,000 investment, 40-year annualized return of 11% (Source: Bloomberg Finance LP). It is not possible to invest directly in an index. This product invests in an ETF aiming to track the S&P 500’s performance. Results may vary due to expenses and other factors. Returns before ETF fees. Diversification is not a guarantee of profit or protection against loss.
4. Wealth Builder: Saving $400/month over 40 years, but not investing and assuming no interest accrual, would accumulate $192,000; however, investing the same $400/month, could add up to over $1million over the same period of time. This projection illustrates a hypothetical example of compounding over time, based on an investment of $400 per month for 40 years with an assumed annualized returns of 7% or more, compounded monthly, assuming the funds stay invested throughout the investment period.
