of years you plan to save, and the estimated annual interest rate. The calculator will show you how much you need to contribute each month to reach your goal. You can also select different compounding frequencies to see how they impact your savings. </p> </section> <section class="bg-white p-6 rounded-lg shadow-lg mb-10"> <h2 class="text-3xl font-bold text-teal-600 mb-4">What is Compound Interest?</h2> <p class="text-gray-700 mb-4"> Compound interest is the interest on a loan or deposit that is calculated based on both the initial principal and the accumulated interest from previous periods. Essentially, it's interest on interest, which can accelerate your savings growth over time. </p> </section> <section class="bg-white p-6 rounded-lg shadow-lg mb-10"> <h2 class="text-3xl font-bold text-teal-600 mb-4">How Does the Compounding Frequency Affect My Savings?</h2> <p class="text-gray-700 mb-4"> The compounding frequency (monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually, or daily) affects how often interest is calculated and added to your savings. More frequent compounding results in more interest accrued, which helps your savings grow faster. </p> </section> <section class="bg-white p-6 rounded-lg shadow-lg mb-10"> <h2 class="text-3xl font-bold text-teal-600 mb-4">How Do I Set a Realistic Savings Goal?</h2> <p class="text-gray-700 mb-4"> Setting a realistic savings goal involves understanding your financial needs, the time frame in which you want to achieve them, and your capacity to save.
