The scariest thing about compound interest

It's not how steep the exponential curve appears, but its absolute honesty about time and perseverance.

Honestly, you can't see any difference in the short term. Your tiny daily decisions—whether to hold, add to your position, or stick to your strategy—seem meaningless. But once time truly works in your favor, those seemingly insignificant daily choices will eventually converge and explode, creating a qualitative leap.

Many people don't lose because of their ability, but because they don't endure until the moment when compound interest starts to speak.

The early stages are always lonely. Cyclical fluctuations, price corrections, market sentiment doldrums—too many people give up at this stage. When the results finally appear, they seem dazzling, as if luck has arrived.

But that's never luck—it's a gift of time, given to those who keep holding on.
