The power of compound interest:
How to build your wealth with eSolar packages and SDBN tokens
Albert Einstein once said, “The eighth wonder of the world is nothing less than compound interest, because those who understand it earn it by earning it. Those who do not understand it, pay it.” This quote perfectly sums up the power and importance of compound interest in the financial world.
Compound interest is a financial tool that, if used correctly, can have a significant impact on long-term wealth creation. It is no coincidence that 98% of people are among the losers, because the effects of compound interest are mostly experienced as credit, inflation or taxes. However, by understanding and applying the compound interest principle, it is possible to benefit from increasing returns over time.
In financial planning, compound interest plays a key role, as it gives us the opportunity to keep our investments growing. By using compound interest, our invested money not only “rests”, but also keeps working for us, generating ever increasing returns. This is why it is essential to understand and actively apply this principle in our financial plans, be it bank deposits, investment funds or even innovative solutions such as SunMoney’s eSolar packages and SDBN tokens.
Definition and basics of compound interest
What is compound interest?
Compound interest is a financial concept which means that the money invested earns a return not only on the initial principal, but also on the interest that has accrued over time. In other words, interest is compounded, so that over time the return can increase exponentially. This principle is one of the most powerful tools for long-term investing, as our money is constantly “working” and growing through compound interest.
A simple example of how compound interest works
Imagine you have 1000 forints, which you deposit in a bank account at 5% interest per year. At the end of the first year, compound interest is calculated as follows:
- At the end of the first year: you earn 5% interest on the 1000 forints, which is 50 forints. This brings the amount in your account to HUF 1050.
- At the end of the second year: you now earn interest on the HUF 1050, again at 5%. This is HUF 52.5, so the amount in your account will be HUF 1102.5.
- At the end of the third year: you will earn 5% interest on the HUF 1102.5, which is HUF 55.125. This brings the amount in your account to HUF 1157.625.
You can see that the amount is growing faster and faster each year because you get interest not only on the initial capital but also on the interest already accrued.
Why is this instrument so powerful for long-term investments?
The power of compound interest lies in the fact that it generates higher and higher returns over time, making long-term investments extremely profitable. Time is the most important factor, as the longer you let your money “work”, the higher the final amount will be. This principle allows even small initial investments to grow into substantial wealth over the years.
In particular, compound interest becomes powerful when the returns are reinvested, so that over time we have more capital available to generate even more interest. This process can be likened to the so-called “snowball effect”: as the snowball rolls down the hill, getting bigger and bigger, the value of our investment increases through compound interest.
This principle works not only for bank deposits or bonds, but also for any long-term investment, be it shares, real estate, or the eSolar packages and SDBN tokens offered by SunMoney. With these investments, we can take advantage of compound interest to build up a substantial passive income that grows steadily over time.
The practical benefits of compound interest
How can you use the power of compound interest to grow your wealth over time?
Compound interest is a tool that is available to everyone and can lead to significant wealth accumulation if used properly. The basic principle is simple: the longer you let your money work, the higher the return it will generate. Here’s how anyone can use the power of compound interest to grow their wealth.
- Get started as soon as possible. The sooner you start investing, the more time you will have to enjoy the benefits of compound interest. Even if you can only put aside a small amount, over time this amount can grow significantly.
- Regular investment. This strategy will allow you to continually increase the amount of capital you invest, which will result in significant returns over the long term.
- Reinvest: the best way to maximise the benefits of compound interest is to reinvest the returns. This means that instead of taking the income from interest, you add it to the original principal, so that a larger amount earns interest in the next period.
Examples.
Many people unfortunately do not take advantage of the power of compound interest and therefore pay rather than earn on it. For example, when someone takes out a loan, compound interest works against them, as interest is constantly added to the outstanding debt, increasing the amount owed. This is why compound interest is more of a burden than a benefit for debtors.
On the other hand, there are those who understand how compound interest works and consciously apply it to their investments. For example:
- Bank deposits.
- Mutual funds: those who invest regularly in mutual funds and reinvest the returns can build up considerable wealth over time.
- Real estate investments: by reinvesting the rental income from real estate into the purchase of new properties, real estate investors can also take advantage of compound interest.
Those who consciously build their finances based on the power of compound interest will over time fall into the 2% who earn on it, while those who think in terms of debt and loans will unfortunately fall into the 98% who pay for it.
The importance of “not parking” money: always be invested and working
One of the most common mistakes that many people make is to “park” their money, i.e. not invest it, but simply put it aside. However, this money does not work, it does not earn interest or a return, and in the long run the value of the money can decrease due to inflation.
The compound interest principle dictates that money must always be working. If you have savings, you need to invest them as soon as possible so that they start to earn a return. If you also reinvest the returns, over time your wealth will grow exponentially. It is this process that will ensure you achieve your financial goals in the long term, whether it’s saving for retirement, buying a home or even just a more comfortable lifestyle.
Instead of “parking” money, think about how you can keep your savings working. Whether it’s a simple bank deposit, shares, property or SunMoney eSolar packages and/or SDBN tokens – the key is to keep the money earning a return and you build your wealth with the power of compound interest.
The compound interest and eSolar packages
How eSolar packages work: how can an 8% annual return increase?
SunMoney’s eSolar packages offer investors a unique opportunity to share in the revenue generated from solar energy production. Purchasers of eSolar packages are effectively buying an asset similar to a “share”, with a return from solar energy production. On average, the packages generate an annual return of 8% on the amount invested, which is paid out to owners in the form of a “solar royalty”.
The annual return of 8% is not evenly distributed over the months, as the rate of payment depends on the number of hours of sunshine and the price of electricity. While the price of electricity is relatively stable, the number of sunshine hours can vary significantly depending on the seasons and months. As a result, the lowest payments are usually made in the winter months, such as December and January, while the highest yields are usually in the summer months, June and August.
Application of compound interest for eSolar packages
The special feature of eSolar packages is that owners can use the proceeds from the monthly payments to buy new eSolar packages. As soon as the payments reach €2, it is possible to buy new eSolar packages, which will also generate a return the following month. This process allows the money to keep “working”, and the returns are reinvested to harness the power of compound interest.
According to the compound interest principle, if the yields are reinvested, the increased capital will generate even higher yields the following month, further increasing the value of the investment. In this way, investors can continually increase the total value of their eSolar packages and achieve higher and higher payouts each month.
Example: How can someone increase their income with eSolar packages?
Let’s say someone buys €2000 worth of eSolar packages, which generate an annual return of 8%. During the first year, the investor can expect a return of around €80, which he will receive monthly in the form of a “solar royalty”.
- First month: the first monthly payment is, let’s say, €20. The owner reinvests this as the amount reaches €2 and buys another eSolar package with it. (10W eSolar package)
- Month 2: In the second month, the payout will be slightly more, as the new eSolar package will also generate a return. Let’s say 22 euros.
- Month 3: In month 3 the payment will be €25, and so on.
As the owner keeps reinvesting the yields, he will have more and more eSolar packages, each of which will contribute to increasing the payout every month. In this way, the investor not only continuously increases his passive income, but can also build up a substantial long-term wealth without having to make further significant investments.
The compound interest is therefore also a highly effective tool for eSolar packages, allowing investors to maximise their returns and build a secure financial base over the long term.
The compound interest and the SDBN Token
The uniqueness of SDBN Tokens: How does compound interest work for tokens?
SDBN tokens offer a unique investment opportunity in which the principle of compound interest is applied in a unique way. SDBN tokens are backed by solar power plants operated by SunMoney and token holders receive a direct share of the revenue from solar power generation.
For the SDBN tokens, compound interest is expressed in a unique way. Once the tokens are issued, there is a 24-month grace period during which the proceeds are reinvested to increase the output of the solar power plant. This process allows the solar capacity behind the tokens to grow significantly, providing higher returns to token holders in the long term.
Application of compound interest to SDBN Tokens
1, Based on a Smart Contract:
In SDBN tokens, the principle of compound interest is not directly reflected in the reinvestment of returns, but in the development of the underlying infrastructure. For example, if the underlying solar capacity is 1 000 000 watts when the SDBN token is issued, this capacity could increase to up to 2 500 000 watts at the end of the 24-month grace period. This growth reflects the compound interest principle, as the continued recycling of revenues will result in ever increasing output, generating even higher returns for investors in the long run.
2, Token holders:
In addition, the principle of compound interest can also be exploited by using the proceeds from the monthly payments to SDBN token holders to buy more SDBN tokens. Since the number of tokens is limited, they can invest the proceeds from the yield of existing tokens in new SDBN tokens that are still available, thereby increasing the value of their portfolio.
Example: How does compound interest work with SDBN Tokens?
Let’s say someone buys 1 000 SDBN1 tokens backed by 1 000 000 watts of solar capacity. At the end of the first year, after recycling the revenue, the solar capacity could reach 1 200 000 watts, and by the second year it could reach 1 500 000 watts. This means that the yield generated by the tokens will also increase, as the increased capacity will generate more revenue.
Currently (August 2024), holders of SDBN1 and SDBN2Plus tokens can use the proceeds from their monthly payments to purchase additional SDBN3 tokens, leveraging the power of compound interest. For example, if the yield on SDBN1 tokens is 28% per annum, holders can use the yield earned to buy additional SDBN3 tokens, which also earn interest. With this strategy, investors can continuously grow their wealth and reap the long-term benefits of compound interest.
SDBN tokens therefore offer investors the opportunity to use compound interest to continuously increase their income while also participating in the expansion of renewable energy. This investment opportunity is particularly attractive for those who are looking for a long-term perspective and stable, predictable returns.
6. Summary and conclusion:
The compound interest and SunMoney’s products
Compound interest is a financial instrument that is underestimated by many, even though it can have a significant impact on long-term financial growth. Those who understand and apply this principle are able to build substantial wealth over time without having to invest large sums of money on an ongoing basis. The essence of compound interest is that your money is constantly working, and as the returns are reinvested, you accumulate more and more capital, generating even more returns.
The investment options offered by SunMoney, such as the eSolar packages and SDBN tokens, are perfect examples of how you can harness the power of compound interest. With eSolar packages, you can use your monthly payments to buy additional packages, which will continuously increase the value of your investment and your income.
